May Musings

People believe in beauty. People want to pursue beauty. And beauty is a lot of different things to a lot of different people. So here is a list of some of what beauty is to me, right now, on May 4th, 2018...

 
1. Confidence - willingness to focus on who I would be if I was unshaped by my perception of how I am perceived by my peers. 

2. Time - willingness and patience to sit through the hard moments in order to make it to the mountain top, lungs grasping for air, brain surge of energy that comes after the break from our social lives.

3. Generosity - overcoming my own striving to have in order to give and understanding the goodness in others when they choose to give to me.

4. Nature - everything that somehow remains apart from the political, divided mess that humanity can often turn into.

5. Food - it unites us. who in this world has never had a craving, never experienced the perfect crunch or creaminess or their preferred delicacy?

6. Sleep - in its purest form it is the definition of escape... and the slow turn from wide awake to incoherently unaware is even more perfect than the sleep itself.

7. Vast Horizons - because to be forced to understand that you can never truly understand something is an excellent pride-reducing elixir.

8. Adventure - a synonym for change, a reminder that life does not need to fade into a series of identical mornings followed by identical nights.

9. Flannel - comfortable hygge and cozy useful with a touch of chainsaw strength.

10. Listening - it brings truth to the surface.
