Blog Guelph: Beauty


aspenite, originally uploaded by blairware.

Merry Monday friends. Thanks for dropping by on this breezy, sun streaked day of summer in Guelph, Ontario Canada..

This entire weeks posts are dedicated to beauty, beauty and even more beauty.

Russian author Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky once said that "beauty will save the world". Alan Clement, author of Instinct for Freedom suggests that "people, art, a poem, a smile, a photograph - anything that provokes or stimulates us to inhabit a new aspect of reality is beautiful". Dictionary dude Webster offers, "beauty is the quality or aggregate of qualities in a person or thing that gives pleasure to the senses or pleasurably exalts the mind or spirit".

I say beauty is a beautiful thing.

Look closely at your world today. Seek the beauty in all that you encounter. Then find the space to add beauty in generous quantities.

Best viewed with a brave, open heart.
