During one of my conversations with friends , someone mentioned beauty with meaning . It struck a chord right away . We are all drawn to beautiful things, so much so we want them everywhere in our home , in our surroundings, places of work and worship even on ourselves . John Keats said " A thing of beauty is a joy forever".
When beauty has meaning it connects to something deeper within us . It could be the aesthetics that remind of an exotic place we always admire ,could be something reminding us of our roots or heritage , it could be the way it was made....the touch of human hands . And when we make the connection and choose something that connects us on a deeper level we create worth - more worth for us and the thing in question .
This Christmas make that connection - Buy Beautiful , Buy Meaningful!!
It's so true when you look at it that way. Finding beauty in something always connects us on a deeper level. We are just not conscious of it at the time, but when you really think about it, it really does! Beautiful. A-M xx
ReplyDeleteI love that last line "Buy Beautiful, Buy Meaningful" I just had my stationery designed/ordered to send out to the people I've partnered with on the blog and I went handmade. It is so meaningful and you know the designers truly appreciate the business. Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? xoxox
