This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for August 13, 2009:
The word 'beauty' is really a judgement. What one consideres beauty, another considers ugly or repulsive. I've come across so many that think snakes or bats are ugly.
I think they are just beautiful creatures. Source sees all things in such a way. Each has its own beauty. A snake with its smooth on the bottom and course on the top skin. They way the muscles in the body contract and coil are pure amazement for me. But I would ask someone else about it and they shutter at just the thought of it.
I've always been afraid, okay, repulsed by spiders. But I've grown to appreciate them. Especially their webs. The intriicate and strong yet flexable webs just blow me away. After a while I start to see the beauty in them and start to appreciate spiders. Now I wont be handling any spiders like I would a snake, but I'll appreciate their beauty from a distance.
When I get past my fear, which puts up a judgement of ugly, I start to see the beauty in everything.
I see the beauty in every person I meet. As a bodyworker, I'm amazed at all the different body types there are. Yet Hollywood would have us believe there is only beauty as to how they define it. But the deaf girl signing to her beautiful friend or the woman in a wheel chair, or the blind boy with scars on his face are more beautiful to me than the most 'Beautiful people' in Hollywood would ever come close to being. Actually I see those people and see their energy, and it's not so pretty. Not even close.
