What do you see, hear, touch, taste and smell that is beautiful?
Is beauty uniform, fixed straight, angular, flat?
Is it textured, variable, smooth, slooping, curved?
What makes something beautiful to you?
Our culture prizes the curve of a woman's breast but not the curve of her belly.
What do you make of that?

Ok you little philosopher...true beauty is on the inside. Have you ever noticed how once you get past the "unnormalities" of people you find them to be wonderful, thus beautiful? For example, someone that is old and feeble, someone in a wheel chair, someone that is disfigured, someone that is grossly overweight. If everyone were blind and could only talk to people to get to know what is on the inside, I think the whole world would be more beautiful and accepted.
