The term beautiful can mean many things to many different people. A sunrise can be beautiful. A person can look beautiful and attractive. A person's actions and thoughts can be beautiful. A poem or story can be beautiful and moving. The weather can be beautiful. A dream or a goal can be beautiful. So my question is, when you think of beauty, what is the first thing that pops into your head? For me it would have to be a beautiful country scene with just the right amount of trees, grass, a creek with clear water, and colorful rocks. So, how do you describe beauty?

I descibe beauty as in the eye of the beholder, the good inside someone, art, or a scenic veiw.No one thing can describe beauty for everyone see beauty in different things and in different ways.

I agree with you. Beauty can be many things. I was just curious to see what the word makes various people think of when they first hear it or think about it. The first thing that pops into your head. Thanks for the reply.

I belive beauty lies in three places 1. In the physical apperence of the person viewed. 2. In the charecter of the person viewed. 3. In the eyes of the viewer. every person defines beauty in their own respective domains i do in this 3 fashion.
