    Having researched on what and where beauty is (lies); I led my gray matter to scroll through the experiences digested in the couple of years to pen down what beauty is according to my senses.

    Lord Krishna
    Kid’s pranks
    Rainbow
    Lotus petals
    Chrysanthemum field
    Kittens
    Puppies
    Star-studded sky
    Sea oysters
    Temple bell
    Johnson baby add
    Sunrise
    Sunset
    The three lines on the squirrel’s back
    The beautiful portrait of Mona Lisa
    Fish’s swim
    Swan’s dance
    Dolphin’s tones
    Birds of a feather flocking together
    Spider’s web
    The swoop of an eagle
    The gymnast’s flexi-bodies and their rhythmic gymnastics
    The full moon
    Penguin’s walk
    Rose garden
    The land of Rising Sun
    The Pole star
    Rose candy
    Kite soaring high imitating the birds
    Bridal dress with a mehandi hand
    Pearls
    Child’s laugh
    Dew on the leaf tip
    The water falls
    Flora and fauna
    Saturn’s rings
    The Korean grass
    Artistic handwriting
    Snowy peak of the Himalayas
    The marvelous cartoons
    Yam leaf
    Cashew fruit
    The beautiful eyes
    The conch
    Azure blue sky
    Shadow of trees
    Plant creepers
    Victory march
    Aerial view of a valley
    Gliding balloons
    Dance beats
    The waves of an ocean
    Peace- pigeon
    See-saw
    Graceful galloping horses in a ride
    Polar bear
    Tricolor
    Cluster flowers
    Wood- pecker
    Curvy tracks and hair pin bends on a mountain
    The row of Christmas trees
    Well furnished living space
    Hanging bunch of green grapes
    Seven Wonders of the World
    A small natural mole on the face
    The chisel’s nuances
    The mystic beauty
    Passing clouds
    Four or more generations of people living in a family
    A garland
    A true yogi’s meditating posture
    Branch hanging squirrel tasting a reddish guava fruit
    Water melon slices
    Birth day candles
    The pinkish, soft and tender hands and legs of a new born
    Wall papers
    Glass paintings
    The self young- age photos
    Talking in code language with my dad
    The pleasure scribbles

    You may add on your personal beauties too! Let us beautify the space around.

    Ramya,
    You had made our job easier, (as you had listed, shall I say 99.9%...)
    Did you forget your 'biscuits'??????

    Birds eating seeds,
    Nature's beauty..
    now-a-days...
    learning Gita from my parents,
    discussing with them..
    studying kural...earnestly..
    hugging my mom
    seeing flowers blooming from our plants, also on other plants
    looking at the 'tiny fruits' in our trees..
    Leaf-waving of the trees, when there is a breeze.
    The sound of rain drops..
    the sky before the rain..
    clear blue sky with no clouds...
    clouds in different shapes and sizes...
    sriniketan

    A great blog, Ramya...

    I like everything under the sun...My cheerfulness is triggered by seeing almost everything...

    Personally I feel if I get to see things leisurely I love those...

    Want to take the privilege of sharing somethings, though...

    To love and be loved, with a smile, a touch, a gesture etc..
    Spending time with family..
    Finding new friends and interacting with them...
    Long journey in car...
    Appa's story during night wake-up when I was a very small girl..
    Amma's...what to mention..she is an angel...
    Surfing with DH...
    Bed-time story to my kid; he becomes subconsciously aware and talks so emotional, so matured..
    All the moments with my Grandparents...
    Relishing my fav food items..
    Shopping..
    My school...
    My native...
    Anandha Vikatan..
    Music...

    And of course, all those mentioned by you and other IL'ites...

    Great blog, Ramya, once again..

    Made me travel down memory lane...

    WOW.. the list is incredible and awesome.. the replies are wonderful too.. my dearmost ramya.. I only have one thing to add. I find beauty in the way you address me and write to me and in you.. especially when you have written about Lord Krishna.. I remember some time back you wrote a blog on Krishna.. also a blog on a trip you and your mother made to a temple.. in those as I read my mind felt thrilled to see Lord Krishna through you and without any doubt I know I saw beauty...

    Colorful hang-glides against the alps
    Hot air ballons on the sky
    Baby elephants hugging their moms
    Fog-covered Talacauvery
    Endless waves on the beaches
    Gigantic waterfalls
    New-born baby

    Beyond all, the inner beauty in a human
    that can only be left!

    Dear Ramya

    A beautiful ode.........

    My list

    to watch a baby sleep
    to kiss a baby
    Baby to kiss me
    innocent gurgle of babies
    the love filled eyes
    a long drive with someone you love
    after a tiring day when we come back home, my daughter hugging me & kissing me
    The slight drizzle falling on the face
    Licking an ice cream during rains
    Last but not the Least,Looking at the beautiful photo of HER in my desk.

    Such a comprehensive list Ramya. Wow. Very nice indeed. At such a young age you have minutely observed such beautiful details around you. Great.
    My list has all of the things you have listed and I included more things from the FBs :). Here are a couple more of mine-
    1. The serene face of my kids sleeping when I wake up early morning.
    2. The face of hubby sleeping peacefully next to me.
    3. Gazing at stars on a clear night.
    4. Watching fighter jets fly in the sky. They look more beautiful at night with their lights shinning waaaaaaaay up there in the sky.
    5. Driving on a road that has ocean on one side and lush green mountains on the other side. (I just did that on my vacation!).

    graceful dancing,
    beautifully adorned temple deities coming out during utsavams,
    seeing the rest of the train when it turns a bend...
