I blame Austin.

Because now I'm gonna talk about things that i think are beautiful. A happy blog to follow the slightly melancholy blog I finished a few minutes ago.

-----

I am a constant preacher of that which is beauty. I try to make it apparent to all those in contact with me, that we should all respect the beauty of others and everything in our world.

I've never understood how someone could pick at someone's appearence or the likes or dislikes of something. How people could pick at someones personality. But it's human to err and I respect that.

Something we all should know, is we are ALL beautiful.

You may not think the girl to your left is pretty, but to someone else she is, and even then, that does not mean she is not beautiful.

Beautiful is not only in appearance. It's in action. It's in simplicity. It's in a feeling.

Love is beautiful. Not just a couples love, a family's love, a father's love, a friend's love, a dog's love, a grandfather's love.. etc

Innocence is beautiful.

Simplicity is beautiful.

The broken are beautiful.

The courageous are beautiful.

Everything, everyone, is beautiful.

This chair to my right is beautiful. I mean it. It has a crack running across where you sit. It gives it character. Though you may not see it, I bet a photographer could show you it's beauty just by the corruption of an angle.

A child holding a father's hand is beautiful.

The penny on the ground, that has touched the lives of so many people, yea I still think it's beautiful.

The guy in your class that is extremely obnoxious, is beautiful. Trust me.. he may be annoying but there beauty with in him.

Beauty is joy.

Beauty is laughter.

The ability to express one's feelings... is beautiful.

gahhh i could go on forever.. and this isn't even well constructed. It's just a ramble. but I don't care. You know why? Because it's my beautifully unstructured, random blog, on beauty..that I would've wrote eventually but felt the urge to because Austin wrote one..

so yea I blame him. But that's okaybecause He and his blog are/is/was beautiful.

And so is anyone reading this.

and blah blah blah beauty.

I challenge you to seriously take a stroll outside and really look around. Look at all the things you normally look past. Look at people, think about their life story. Look at the ground you step on. Look at the candy wrapper on the ground. Look at the bird searching for worms and really think about it. Everything is beautiful. Knowing that will make everything more enjoyable.

With that, I bid you farewell, I have a paper to write on time management.. *hopefully* my teacher will think my paper is beautiful too..
