I see the beauty of the world around me in simple, sincere things. I like it when the wind lightly ruffles someone's hair or gently sways the ears in the field. I like this part of the face, where the border between the beginning of the forehead and the hair passes. I love it when people sigh or blink a little and their eyelashes are so beautiful. I like to listen to someone's heart beat. I like autumn leaves blown by the wind and tangled in someone's hair. I like a glade with dandelions or daisies. I like children playing. All this inspires me. I don't like perfect, no Ideal means unreal. It seems to me that beauty and harmony are not in chic clothes, a slender figure and long hair. They are contained in the soul of a person, and by nature he is given everything necessary for the realization of his innermost dream.

The beauty of the world around us is the nature around us. There is so much beauty in this world that when I think about it, I feel ashamed that I was angry that something did not work out the way I would be comfortable. Moments that interfere with our plans - and there is life.

Look out the window and you will see the sun and the sky. Think about it, don't you wonder how many kilometers it will begin to darken and soon show an amazing, endless space? How is a star born, what extraterrestrial civilizations exist? When I think about it, my heart skips a beat. I start crying because I feel like I just lack the knowledge to start studying planetary surfaces, discovering new galaxies, and developing ways to escape asteroids that could attack our planet.

I would like to live near the sea so that I can go out every morning and enjoy the splash of its waves. I would like to have my own observatory on mountain top. I dream of seeing an airship and flying in a hot air balloon. I would like to have a house in the mountains, see the paintings of Leonardo da Vinci and the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, go down to the depths of the Pacific Ocean, meet Pushkin and Jules Verne. I dream of traveling all over the world and helping people, visiting orphanages and hospitals. I dream of visiting Rome, Florence, Kamchatka, Baikal, Ireland and even Hollywood. All this is the beauty of the world. And nature, and miracles created by the hands of people.

I see the beauty of the world around me in art. Paintings, music, dancing, literature - all this delights me. I cry with happiness when I listen to my favorite songs, I cry when I watch the gymnasts in the circus and the dancers on the stage, I cry when I admire the works art. I cry when I read poetry and prose. I just love it all. I love animals and our planet, and I so want other people to love and appreciate kindness. I see the beauty of the surrounding world in everything, in every moment, and I cherish every second spent by me in this world, in this Universe.

It was a cold and sunny day, I spent time with my children. We played with the rabbit on the lawn next to the house. Everything was wonderful, but suddenly I realized - in 30 years I will no longer remember the details of today. I can't remember in great detail our trip to Disneyland, the gifts we gave each other at Christmas.

How can this be changed? Become more aware?

We experience life's events as if in fast-forward. If we could slow down, everything would play out in a new light. That is why the idea of ​​slow life, when life flows at a measured pace, is so popular now, especially for residents of megacities who constantly do not have time for anything.

But we have a thousand excuses. A career that makes you feel important, a wardrobe that makes you look presentable. We are mired in everyday affairs, in everyday routine, or, on the contrary, do not pay attention to anything in pursuit of an ideal life.

What can we do right now?

1. Pay attention to every moment

It is not necessary to spend every vacation in an exotic country. Even ordinary things give a taste for life - for example, the same game with children on the front lawn. Instead of looking to the future, try dwelling on the present.

2. Learn to see beauty in simple things

Beauty is the key to realizing the most important. The main guide to a different view of the world. A blossoming tree in the garden, a stylishly decorated hotel room or an incredible sunset opens up a different side of everyday life, you will enjoy the satisfaction of just living on the planet.

3. Treat life like a game

Adult life puts pressure on us with a new level of responsibility. But don't forget that we were once children. Keep a sense of humor in any, even the most difficult, life situation.

4. Be grateful for every moment that happens to us

Be grateful for what life gives. You can use the following technique: At the end of each day, review the previous day. What can you praise yourself for? What made you happy? Do not forget about such pleasant things - the smile of your mother, the rosy cheeks of the son who came home after playing football, the husband who came home from work. Be attentive to trifles, do not go in cycles in your problems.

5. Protect yourself from burnout

I clearly remember that period. Everyone worried me, but not myself. I worked from home, took care of the household while my husband worked in the office, staying up late. Where can you find time for yourself? And it must be, otherwise you will dissolve in others and completely forget about your "I".

6. Be ready for change at any moment

Nothing is permanent in life. Each event brings its own changes. But it's worth it. There is nothing more changeable than life itself, and we must be ready for change. The main thing that will help you find yourself is to live with an open soul and wide open eyes.

7. Change the habitual life scenario

The scenario by which we live is exclusively in our head. We create our own reality. If you are dissatisfied with yourself and do not want to live the way you live, this is an occasion to reconsider your outlook on life and develop a new scenario that is different from the one you live now. you line up new reality and go ahead.

Try to pay as little attention to distractions as possible and listen to your mind and heart. More awareness, and life will appear before you from a new angle, and everything around will sparkle with new colors.

The opportunity to see the beautiful and amazing around them is given only to children. Growing up, people gradually lose this gift. Many of us have divided the world into good and bad, useful and harmful.
Things, events, phenomena that mean nothing to some, or even annoy, for others can become a real inspiration, an object of admiration.

The ability to see beauty in something else

The talent to notice little things helps to make new discoveries. The most attentive are people of creative specialties - artists, photographers, writers, artists, sculptors. For them, the world is open in a diverse palette of colors and has more facets of beauty. People of art tend to find the positive in the most ordinary or even not very pleasant for others more often than others.
One such example is the attitude of actor Tom Cruise towards his daughter Suri. He, like a loving father, decided to capture in gold what other parents throw away by wrinkling his nose (guess what?). And for him it was a real work of art. I didn't want to include this picture. 🙂
This is, of course, an unusual case, and it is not the only one of its kind.
As you can see, different things can be beautiful. The main thing is to be able to see.

To be able to see beauty in gray and boring

The ability to see something more than close to the gaze of a person is not given to everyone. Alas, but many, as they say, do not see beyond the tip of the nose.

“Here it is, a gray and terrible fence made of aluminum, cruciform ... no fantasy!” - the fellow traveler in the bus grumbles.

Really, grey colour brings boredom. And what should be the fences of hundred-kilometer roads of a huge city? To build chased or cast iron fences, as in tsarist Russia? Would these fences be a real decoration? After all, behind their beauty, no one would have seen dandelions blooming in a clearing. And yet, along the entire length of the road on such a nondescript and gray fence, real city beauties - petunias flaunt.

Why do some people see gray, while others see its shades and what is beyond it?

Seeing and understanding beauty in simple things

This is the most wonderful way to cheer yourself up. There is no need to wait for someone to take care of you, to entertain you, to console you in moments of grief. We can do it ourselves if we want.

How to do it, if everything around is not right and wrong? We will not list the reasons why you can be upset. There are really too many of them, but we are not talking about this today.

One of the options for raising the mood is this. Only here the loved one cannot guess about it? Or does his way home not pass by a flower stand?

Create your own mood! It is absolutely not worth going to buy a bouquet for yourself. This can be a reason for jealousy. Although, the reason for jealousy can also be from weeds (that's how they called my bouquet).

Go outside, to the nearest park, where you have not yet had time to "mow" the lawn, and pick flowers for yourself. Simple blades of grass, daisies, blooming clover, thistles. Everything you meet. Why not a bouquet?

To live well those who are a stone's throw away from wildlife. A city dweller needs to go somewhere. Well, how much effort does it take to pick up forget-me-nots and bells for your girlfriend? Such a bouquet, perhaps, in terms of spiritual value will be more expensive than the purchased one.

And how many positive emotions - fresh air, birdsong and a complete sense of freedom!

When a person begins to see beauty in simple things, he becomes happier.

If we could clearly see the miracle of one flower, our whole life would change... Buddha

This bouquet turned out to be not only cute and funny, but also useful. Cat Musya appreciated it, and enjoyed it with pleasure.

In the middle of summer, becoming the owner of a bouquet is much easier. But for the winter time, a bouquet is a real gift. Is it worth waiting for such a miracle? Create it yourself - plant a real one at home and enjoy your garden every day.

How to see the world as beautiful and unusual if we walk with our heads down?

As if they had lost something… Yes, many have really lost their sense of reality, good mood, optimism, the desire to be kind, sympathetic…
And then there is rain, dampness, puddles. If we walk, looking under our feet, then let's admire the world in the reflections of the puddles. look on the world through the eyes of children, photographers and artists, or lovers.

There are many examples when you can see the unusual in simple things.

To notice a miracle or not depends on one's own desire - to focus on the bad, or to try to discern and appreciate the little things, without which the world would be incomplete.

The desire to see the beautiful does not mean at all that it is necessary to turn a blind eye to things, actions and events that require intervention and correction.

People who tend to feel deeper just differ from the rest by a special responsibility for maintaining peace and harmony in it. I would like to hope that most of them are.

How to return the ability to see the world beautiful and amazing?

  • The flexibility of the mind can be developed, which sharpen all the senses
  • Can . They can help you get away from the hustle and bustle.
  • More walking (traveling) and observing.
  • Read the classics, listen to beautiful music.
  • Get creative: or take pictures.
  • Get involved in charity.

Sometimes, the disclosure of love for an unusual environment (objects and even people) is very slow.

The beauty that a person discovers for himself makes the deepest impression.

Unfortunately, many begin to appreciate simple things and trifles only when they find themselves in extreme situations, drastically changing living conditions.

Do not be afraid to be strange, move away from the imposed beauty patterns, learn to see the beauty in the ordinary, the extraordinary in the simple. And of course - be happy! Live well, right?

See the beauty in the simple

Leafing through famous volumes

We learned to speak beautifully

In the words of Pushkin, Makarenko, Dumas,

But this is not only our strength.

Leafing through famous volumes

We teach to live with dreams and hearts.

We know they need our help

Children with curious eyes.

We often say that in our difficult time there is no place for admiration, admiration, beauty, kindness. That all people are evil, selfish. But times are not chosen, they live and die in them. There have never been simple times, each generation has its own difficulties, its own trials.

We, teachers, teach to see external beauty... in music, in pictures, in nature, even in the simplest, everyday things... in a blade of grass, in a dry twig, in a piece of glass. We teach to create beauty ourselves ... through drawings, crafts, photographs, good deeds. And we smoothly move on to the vision of inner beauty in a person.

I made an educational plan for 4 years at once (very convenient, I recommend). In the course of its implementation, it is adjusted taking into account the individual characteristics of the class team. The development of each direction is worked out from simple to complex, from small to eternal.

But back to the beauty of the inner. We often hear "Beauty will save the world." Who remembers where these words come from? (the novel "The Idiot" by F.M. Dostoevsky). What beauty are we talking about? (about spiritual beauty, about the beauty of the soul). Beauty is the sum of moral qualities “positively beautiful person”, the best thing in people is beauty. What you feed in your soul grows and develops.

Beauty can be seen in contrast. One person can say a lot of beautiful words, while another can remain silent, but do a beautiful deed. Compare beautiful and ugly (snow and mud, wonderful music and disgusting creaking of the door). A person can create around him both beautiful and ugly. One person tries to speak good and kind words, while another likes to be rude, swear and tease. One tries to draw beautiful drawing, and the other deliberately stains the paper with scribbles. One happily sculpts a snowman and tries to make it fun and beautiful, while the other deliberately destroys it.

The beauty of the soul (fairy tale)

It was boring for the Flower to stand all day long on one leg in the middle of a flower bed. He grew up and opened his petals much earlier than the rest of the flowers, and therefore he had absolutely no one to communicate with. And then, one day, an unfamiliar, very beautiful Butterfly sat on it. She probably flew in from afar, because Flower had never seen such beautiful wings. While the Butterfly, folding its wings, was resting, the Flower complained to her of his loneliness and told her about how boring and sad his life was. The Butterfly took pity on the lonely Flower. She decided not to fly further, but to settle nearby. She wanted to fly to the Flower more often and tell him about the places she had already visited. Now the Butterfly flew to the Flower many times a day with news, and he, opening his petals wide, joyfully met his beautiful guest. But one day, when the Butterfly was not around, a boy came up to the Flower and wanted to pick it. The flower shrank, trembled with fear and asked not to pick it, but instead offered the boy to catch his beautiful girlfriend. The boy agreed and went home for a net. Returning, he hid and began to wait for the Butterfly. Soon she appeared in the sky. The butterfly was in a hurry somewhere and flew past, but the Flower opened its petals wide and exclaimed: - Butterfly, fly quickly to me, I have been waiting for you for a long time. I need to tell you something. As soon as the Butterfly flew up to the Flower, she immediately ended up in a net. She wanted to escape from captivity, but she did not succeed. Suddenly, the edge of the net lifted, and Butterfly saw a hand reaching out to her. Someone's fingers tried to grab her. Butterfly rushed about, beat its wings and suddenly she managed to break free. Flying high, she looked back and saw that the blow of the net had broken the Flower. He lay motionless among the grass. The boy left, and Butterfly sat for a long time next to her broken and silent friend, and weeping bitterly, she said: - It's my fault, it was you who was broken because of me, forgive me, Flower.

[?] - Which of the heroes of the fairy tale was truly beautiful in soul and heart?

- How did the Flower act in relation to the Butterfly? (Ugly and ugly)

- Or maybe someone thinks that the Flower acted beautifully, because he saved his life? (To the answer "yes": if he acted beautifully, then you would like to be friends with him if you were a Butterfly).

Did you like the boy or not? Why?

What is more important, the beauty of the soul or the beauty of the outside?

I really like Nikolai Zabolotsky's poem "Ugly Girl" ... here are the last lines:

... what is beauty,

And why do people deify it?

Vessel she, in which emptiness,

Or fire shimmering in a vessel?
