I think the most beautiful people I know (and most likeable too) are those individuals who look for the good in others.

Beautify your space
I came across this poster by Kate Moore on Pinterest today and absolutely love the sentiment. It just made me stop to think how lucky I am to know so many wonderful people who make my world a beautiful place.
I ♥ trees
Photo by Lila Cheekytree
“The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see nature ridicule and deformity, and some scarce see nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself.”
From a letter written by William Blake (1757 – 1827) English poet, artist
A tree is one of the most beautiful things in the world. If you’re like me and love trees please follow my ‘I ♥ trees’ pinboard on Pinterest - a virtual pinboard that allows you to organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web. Lately I’ve become a bit of a Pinterest addict; it helps me find beautiful images and get inspiration from like-minded people who share my interests. Click here to check it out.
Beauty never grows old
“Youth is happy because it has the capacity to see beauty. Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old.” ― Franz Kafka (1883 – 1924)
Beauty in diversity
“If every one were cast in the same mould, there would be no such thing as beauty.” — Charles Darwin
Knowledge is beautiful
Quote
“It is sometimes said that scientists are unromantic, that their passion to figure out robs the world of beauty and mystery. But is it not stirring to understand how the world actually works—that white light is made of colors, that color is the way we perceive the wavelengths of light, that transparent air reflects light, that in so doing it discriminates among the waves, and that the sky is blue for the same reason that the sunset is red? It does no harm to the romance of the sunset to know a little bit about it.”American astronomer (1934 – 1996)
Everything has beauty
“Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.”
Ugly Duckling or Swan?
“Are you an ugly duckling or a swan? Because the choice is yours you know. Belief is half of being. That’s just a fancy way of saying if you believe you’re pretty than you will be pretty. You’ll see.”
Anne Bancroft in Point of No Return
