Beauty, A State of Mind - Ecotrain QOTW

What is beauty? Does it have to do anything with how you look, how fair you are, or how clear your skin is? Nooooooooo.

Beauty is a very deep word. According to me, it relates to a state of mind that helps you visualize things around you in a positive manner and enables you to appreciate them. If you have that state of mind, you will find everything and anything on this earth beautiful.

Let me try and explain this to you with some clips.

Sisters going crazy together

The relationship of two sisters who can share their sorrows, joys, pain and laughter with each other; who can sit and chit chat for hours without thinking of the world and society; who are there to hold hands when no one else is there.

Grandparents forgetting their pains for their grandchildren

How grandparents forget all their body pains when they see their grandchildren; how they thrive to see them smile and how they spend beyond their pockets just to buy them a small toy which would mean a world to the kids; how kids think of their grandparents as Gods of mercy, someones they can look forward to play, tell their day stories and lay down on their shoulders for the comfort of the world.

Poor children smiling

Smiling when you know you have nothing in your hand and probably will never have in the future as well. Smiling with a feeling of comfort of having what small little things you have, feeling blessed about their small little possessions, and living with a bold smile as if they are the kings and queens of the world.

Cultural Diversity

Sitting with people from different cultural backgrounds, sharing our thoughts with them, eating food and laughing, seeing them as our buddies, relating to them as our closed ones, having a feeling of togetherness and brotherhood.

Small sapling growing into a tree

Hope when we see a small sapling just an inch tall, growing every day, losing all leaves and gaining new ones, standing straight in the heavy rains and storms, bearing the strong sun yet growing each day, sometimes tapped my feet yet standing confidently.

All the pictures above can be perceived in a million ways but the beauty of these can be understood by a few.

So beauty is not about looks; it's how you feel and perceive. Beauty is not by birth; it's by our experience, exposure, and learnings. Beauty lies within, unseen and remarkable.
