BEAUTY begets GRATITUDE
This is a re-post from +BEAUTY begets GRATITUDE

Each one of us experiences beauty
individually. We share our experience uniquely. Some of us share in
silence, some use logic, some emotion, some order, some words, some
science, some art, some construct, some spirituality, some work, some
friendship, some duty, some music, some constancy, some dance and so
on in an endless list. The common thread is a too-full sense of
gratitude that overflows to bless all around us. It's that feeling of
happiness that demands us to smile at everyone and everything. It
claims all is beautiful.
Have you ever seen an Atheist and a
Theist or any other dissimilar pair, enraptured by beauty and willing
to interrupt their bliss to use that shared beauty as a weapon to
attack one another for their differing viewpoints? In that moment
they are united. They are at peace. They are embraced by beauty that
is more dear in that moment than personhood.
The power of beauty to stir gratitude
in every heart
Beauty bars complaint. Beauty inspires
gratitude. Gratitude is unbridled. Gratitude blesses impersonally as
the rain.
The power of beauty to stir gratitude
in every heart, without exception, became clear to me as I watched
two Ted Talks by Louie Schwartzberg. His time lapse photography
thrills all, regardless of what persons believe or know. It draws
everyone together under one umbrella, free of angst.
