Do you ever find beauty in unusual places?

[MaliceInWickedland]

I wouldn't call it unusual but I find the rain to be one of the most beautiful things about nature. I think of it as a symbol of life. Without water, you can't live and everything around you would die. Gloomy days usually seem sad and dull to some people but I find them lovely, especially when it's raining hard with thunder and everything. It's so peaceful to listen to. I usually sit for hours in my patio, watching and listening to the rain. They remind me of tears falling from heaven, bringing life to the dry, dead ground below and resurrecting all the withering flowers. I also love the fresh smell lingering in the air after a storm. It's like you're breathing in the life of the earth itself.

yeah
i find storm clouds, like thunder clouds, that darken the sky and seeing the lightning within the coulds.
also low hanging fog in a forest in the morning is beautiful to me

These kind of semi-abandoned construction sites just kinda boost my moral. It's almost like nature is saying; ''You can build towns on me all you want, but I'm still here you *******.''

Yes, yes, and I fully realize that everything on Earth, even the ''artificial'' things, are essentially natural in resources. But it's just nice to see something in it's raw form. Non-human controlled. Free.

I like this train of thought

Construction sites that pend construction.

I prefer active construction sites. Also, concrete, rebar, I-beams, water pipes, pilings, power lines, etc. The literal foundations of modern society that so many people ignore, or at best, take for granted. I like watching them all come together into a finished product.

i can find the beauty in anything if i want to, even things that i shouldn't.

it's a pleasure; "everything is just so lovely... *skips around*"
but, it's also a pain because if everything is beautiful then nothing is beautiful.
which is why i don't dive too much into seeing the beauty in all these things unless it stands out to me or if i want/need to.

yeah. coworkers, people i talk to, show surprising feelings and thoughts that make me realize that some of the more beautiful emotions are the ones that humans everywhere share. on walks through woods by my house, cemeteries, by streams, in pavement, in people humming, in music that you wouldn't always think of as beautiful (it's the beat, the perception, the pressurized thrum thrum that incites a set of primal goosebumps), in depression, in boredom, in negative space, in thought, in my dog, in weird angles, in awareness and unawareness.
