Something I Have Done That Is Beautiful

Although it may not be perfect, I consider this wall in my bedroom beautiful because I created it by myself. It took a lot of time just to paint the zebra stripes the way that they are. Although the process was tedious, I think that it was all worth it because I can say that I painted this design all on my own!

Something That's NOT Beauty

Bullying is NOT beauty. Just because the bully is having their own issues doesn't give them the right to belittle another person and cause them to have more problems. No one knows exactly what is going on in another person's life, and therefore they have no right to judge them until they have stepped foot in that other person's shoe, and experience what they have experienced.

Video That Describes Beauty

I think that this video describes beauty because it shows how important family really is. And I enjoy how the daughter went out of her way (she isn't even engaged yet) since her father won't be at her actual wedding considering he is dying. It was so beautiful that I cried!

Modern Piece of Art

I think that crayon melted art can define beauty. It is something that is so simple to do, but it still looks pretty cool!

Piece of Music

I think that "Live Like You Were Dying" by Tim McGraw really is a beautiful song. It's about a man who is dying and until he knew this, he had never really lived to his full potential. So when he did find out that he was dying he finally started to do the things that mattered to him most before he died. The most important lyrics of the song to me include loving deeper, spoke sweeter, gave the forgiveness that he'd be denying, and be the friend a friend would like to have. But most importantly, I think, is the beauty behind the lyrics and song title, to live like you're dying. Until you are actually faced with the concept of dying within a matter of time, then are you really living the way that you want to? Or would you live your life differently if you knew you were dying? "Live Like You Were Dying" truly is a beautiful song!

Manufactured Beauty

This keychain of a croc is one piece of beauty that I will never regret getting from the local Wal-Mart. It defines me and my love towards wearing Crocs. Crocs have a good arch support and they are quick to put on when you are in a hurry. They are also one of the most comfortable shoes that I have ever owned!

My iPhone 4S is a piece of beauty. It has been my most reliable smart phone, and it always provides me with entertainment when I am bored! I couldn't see myself ever wanting any other brand of phone!

Beauty Taken For Granted

Our staff at LHS is like no other, they are the BEST! Although sometimes they may seem like they are out to get us, they are really helping us to improve! They grant us several opportunities to put ourselves out there and in turn, be successful. Since these are people that I probably see more than my own family, I often take them for granted. But really they are awesome people that no one should ever look past!

Spontaneous Beauty

This is a picture of my volleyball team on Dig Pink night. I think it is spontaneous because first of all, what volleyball team will wear tutu's to their home game?! Secondly, it represents all of the random personalities that we each have and it seems to capture the amount of fun with such a great group of girls!

Acts of Beauty

Although this picture is a little fuzzy, it represents beauty to me in a few different ways. It was taken immediately after we lost our game to Southwest Christian in the Chaska tournament. They asked us if we were willing to gather quickly for a prayer, which we did. After that, it's almost like I didn't care that we had lost, just the idea of all of us gathering together after a tough match showed so much respect! It was honestly an act of beauty!

This is a shirt that I got from my second grade CAP class two years ago. It was an act of beauty because they gave me this shirt when I came back to visit one day in second semester (I took the class first semester). I wasn't expecting it at all, and they didn't even have to make it for me, but they still did! Not only was the shirt an act of beauty, but the classroom and teacher also provided a positive vibe any of the days I would see them which was also an act of beauty to me!

Artificial Beauty

I think that the Ralph is a beautiful place in TRF. It is the nicest high school arena in Minnesota. I have spent most of my winter's in this building for hockey, and it could easily be considered one of my favorite places to be!

Our school is a beautiful place! With the recent updates of course, our school looks pretty spiffy, but what really makes LHS such a beautiful place is the faculty. It is a great atmosphere to attend school at, and I truly will miss everything about it after I graduate!

Natural Beauty

This is a picture taken on a snow day a little over a year ago. I like the way that the leaves still haven't all fallen off of the trees, but the snow is sitting so perfectly on the trees and ground. I always enjoy seeing the first snowfall of the year!

This is a picture that I took on one of my runs last year. I think that not only sunsets are beautiful, but so are sunrises and starry night skies. The are never the same, and there's normally different colors each time. They are beautiful!
