What is beauty to you?

April 20, 2023

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder…

We all know what this means, right, that it’s subjective!

But do you know who said that first? Google says this link from the California State University (CSU) will explain it:

In response to the above question:

Ann Jarjoura

Beauty is the sunrise and sunset

Rainbows after rain

Baby animals together as one.

Writing poetry

Roast lamb dinner


Maureen Mendelowitz

Beauty is kind

Beauty is gentle

Beauty is a field painted with sun stroke

And present in the stillness of the bay

Beauty is found in the eyes of a child

in the loving presence of a mother

Beauty is a peaceful thing

and with peace comes beauty

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! Yes, I agree. But God made man in his image and likeness making us all beautiful.
