In our culture today, aesthetics are trivialized. Glamour has replaced true beauty. We revere the illusory and, too often, ignore that which is truly beautiful. Think Hollywood vs. the Atlantic Ocean; television vs. sunset. What do we pay more attention to?
I am not immune, not “above it all.” Not at all. Television is often my drug of choice. But in a proverbial “dark night of the soul” — mine — I asked myself, what really matters in this life? My answer: true, eternal Beauty. Not those things that are a matter of trend, taste, or style. But eternal Beauty.
And that is what this blog is about the exploration of the aesthetic and how it effects our lives.
