What do I mean? It sounds at first objective, we have standards we mostly accept, like 'beauty is only skin deep', 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder', or we think of 'faded beauty' or 'everlasting beauty'. What of that last one - everlasting? What keeps us going? Everlasting is a holy, spiritual standard. But is it merely imaginary?
Perhaps,... not everyone can be beautiful, in the sense of attractive to the eye. The other senses, especially the emotional one that we attribute to the heart is the sense in which we all have the potential to be beautiful.
In my experience, I have witnessed that anyone who appreciates beauty can create beauty, both in art and in and of themselves.
A formula for understanding the process is in this diagram showing a trinity of Life, Time and Space. Each controls the other two equally, yet the true power of creativity comes from understanding them as one, united. Beauty evolves from this, and all of your feelings, your emotions and your senses, originate from this. I call this Tempus, the Latin word for Time. Though in this case, Time as Tempus is united with the consciousness of Life, and the dynamic of motion enabled by Space.
