Strange statement for the 21st Century, but it all boils down to how you define "Beauty".
Is the grass still green? Is the sky still blue?

When you plant the seeds, do the flowers still grow?

Can you still hear yourself laughing and still see yourself in the mirror?

When you see someone in tears or covered in fear-Does your heart still move?

Is your conscience clear enough that you sleep well at night?

Do you still experience inner moments of Peace?

When you count your Blessings, can you count higher than one?

When you share your riches, be it no more than a piece of bread, do you still feel Joy?

Do you know one person you can truly Trust?

Does Truth still matter to you?

Are you still able to say "I'm Sorry", and are you equally able to Forgive?

Then you still know "Beauty"-

and Life Can Be A Beautiful Thing.
