This issue raises the controversial topic of whether true beauty is something exceptional or can be found in our daily lives. Indisputably, many searches for beauty in exceptional places, however, true beauty surrounds us in everyday lives.
First of all, unlike searching the beauty of the nature in some artists’ work, we should look at the nature itself as it is the true beauty that inspired the artist to reflect on. Thankfully, many people agree that the beauty of the nature deserves exploring since in the United States, outdoor activities in the nature is the second most popular activity among Americans. Every year hundreds of thousands of people travel to see the beauty of Yellowstone or Grand Canyon. Almost everyone who experienced such beauty would say the nature itself is the true beauty compared to an exceptional art work or poem.
In addition, creatures are true beauty that can be found all around us. From a pet cat to a wild tiger every animal has one of a kind color or characteristics. If you talk to a pet owner, she could talk endlessly how her pet has a characteristic beauty different from other pets. Every year people go to zoos or even to safaris to experience the beauty of a tiger. It is not uncommon to see someone standing before the cage of a tiger with and admired and inspired eyes by the beauty of it. Similarly, true beauty is around us when we take a train in multinational region. Although human beings regardless of their difference in race, gender or age have much in common, we can also see how those differences reflect a true beauty. From a 6-month baby to 60-year-old women every human being has one of a kind faces, body, attitude that makes her special. This special beauty inspires countless painters to paint a portray or write a poem. When we look at the painting of the girl with pearl earrings we can see from artist’ eyes her unique beauty of her.
Besides, New York, Istanbul, Hong Kong and many other cities, although commonplaces, have their exceptional true beauty. If the beauty of New York City was not worth seeing why incredible number of tourist travel to see it. Although many commentators resemble one city to another in being multicultural or metropolitan cities have their unique beauty.
