Both my daughters RADIATE PURE BEAUTY unspoiled by religion they are married to the luckiest guys on earth

There are people that glow with goodness and make those around them happy. Someone that is self-sufficient but still able to ask for help when needed. Assertive and honest. It also helps to smell nice too.

Finding someone compatible where doing things together becomes natural and enjoyable. Sounds very simple, doesn't?

For me it is compasion. Watching people rescue others who can offer them nothing in return. The story of a woman who rescued a deformed bee. A man in france climbing a building to rescue a toddler dangling from a rail. The connection of living things to care for one another, which is made all the more beutiful the grater the desparity in size and power. Seeing a spider in my house and being afraid, but not letting that fear cost a life. Collecting the spider and letting it go outside. Why should that spiders life be any less important than mine? Size dose not matter. Strength does not matter. I can live my life and it can live it's life. It's not important if anyone knows, it just seems beutiful to me. So perhapse that is what I get in return.

I have been so alone for so fucking long that beauty is just a naked bitch who stands there fucking laughing at me. I hope that helps.

A nature of being...

compassion selflessness

I love watching someone perform a kindness for someone they don't know and have no expectations of anything in return. That is beauty in a person.

I love hearing couples gushing what they love about each other, when reading their personally prepared wedding vows to each other, often surprising their mate with their notice of little details of their mate's personality quirks. I wish romantic couples would spend more energy reminding each other what they love about each other. That is beauty in romance.

BTW - I've heard many a beautiful sentiments by couples standing where you took this photo, when I used to perform weddings at Snoqualmie Falls! That is beauty in nature!

Self love and respect. Kindness and boundless curiosity. Love of life's many forms. With these, other secondary attributes are guaranteed; things like respect, loyalty, tolerance, trustworthiness and such utter comfort in her presence that total surrender to her hasn't the slightest bit of apprehension. Actually meeting her? I should live so long...

Witty intelligence, dark mystery, love of animals and nature, joy in something most might find mundane or obscure.

The mountains here in Arizona every day I get to look at them really everything about Arizona is beautiful just walking around my neighborhood I find beauty even in the most mundane things

Hiking. The natural world for sure. For some reason baby animals

Quiet

Women

I don't know what to say in order to describe a friendship I have. As I've stated in other comments/posts, I work with a group of women in a Lutheran Church quilting ministry. There is one relationship I've made there that fulfills my soul. Whenever she and I meet, we hug. When we part, we hug. She's told me my hugs are therapeutic. Her hugs are reassuring, genuine, robust! She is married, so within that restriction I know the connection cannot go any further. And, at the same time, I don't need the relationship to go anywhere but where it is!

Thanks for the picture and post. First off Snoqualamie Falls [snoqualmiefalls.com] was where I proposed to my late partner the first time (she asked me to do it again somewhere else and at a different time [seattle.gov] The walk faces West and she wanted me to propose at sunset. It was also in my old neighborhood and a quick trip to my house.
There is a lot of what I consider beautiful in many art forms and nature. I am lucky to live in a place that has no shortage of natural beauty and somehow that affects the way people think. Unfortunately, Seattle is being unduely affected by the business and pro-growth mentality and the beautiful is taking a back-seat.

The reaches of the human mind are among the greatest, most beautiful things in nature. that we can envision something, and see it manifest; that we can describe in minute detail the discrete components of the eye (or ear, or elephant or flower) and understand the structure and function of each; on the other hand, that that same mind can destroy the beauty that is in nature: strip mines, pit mines, landfill trash heaps, plastics choking the oceans, the air unfit to breathe....there is so much that we can do but we keep shooting ourselves in the head (the foot is so passe!).....

It’s a hard question to isolate a specific answer for me. Different people exhibit beauty in different ways. I feel like, contextually, we’re identifying beauty as a sort of intense admiration in a quality. I think creativity is a big deal for me.

Being able to channel an idea, an emotion or value into a form of media, especially if it’s something I’ve never seen before is beautiful. I think optimism is beautiful, if only because it feels in such short supply. Not blind optimism, but I find that I gravitate towards people who find the silver linings in life. At the same time, there is a brand of cynicism I find beautiful, when it’s presented constructively, and used effectively. I guess it all just depends on the person, and what they bring to the table.

I also think sincerity plays a big part in it. Creativity, Optimisim, especially Cynicism...they all benefit from sincerity, and I think in a culture that feels awash in bathos, sincerity is very welcoming and beautiful.

Loving kindness and gentleness of heart I think.

A presence of warmth and generosity in all things that the person in question is unaware of

Yes, I totally agree with you and are necessary in a partnership. But in my view about live the aesthetic beauty is also necessary and I mean not just in human forms but it can be in anything, eve tools or machines but mostly in nature.
The beauty in a spirit or the soul of a partner can't be measured, it can be only experienced through close contact.

A flower, animals, nature, people
