“People often say that ‘beauty is in the eye of the beholder,’ and I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that you are the beholder. This empowers us to find beauty in places where others have not dared to look, including inside ourselves.”
~Salma Hayek
***********
I find myself seeing the most beautiful things in the most common and ordinary sites.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
On my morning walk, I saw a decomposing flower that had fallen off a nearby bush, lying on the steamy sidewalk. The moisture of the flower and the heat of the day created a watercolor image on the grey sidewalk backdrop. It was so beautiful, I needed to stop and take a picture. A perfect oval halo creating a natural masterpiece.
What do you see? Where do you find beauty? It’s all… in the eye of the beholder. Go out and behold!
