There are those
that we often overlook when we consider genius or intelligence. They are the
beautiful minds that are beautiful for beauty’s sake. They are not astrophysicists
or super activists nor leaders in innovation or leaders at all.
They are not
tethered to an ambition that wants to see an end to world hunger nor bring
about world peace. They are beautiful for beauty’s sake. They take in life with
full senses. They enjoy their little “uniquitities” for what they are; special
moments in time that are meant to be enjoyed for what they are.
They see the
world differently. They see the extra colour our eyes can’t decode and hear the
sound and sights of a thousand different worlds and possibilities. And when
they do this, they do not run of and write a book, or compose a symphony…no
they enjoy the moment for what it is, LIFE.
They change the
world by being themselves. They do not apologise for who they are and the way they
look at the world. Yes, the world thinks them odd but they somehow hover above
this all and shrug it all off because Life, the Present has so much more joy to
offer and so many more moments of
enjoyment to be wasted on people who think they are not normal.
Yes they do feel
burdened by these “abilities” cause they are normally quiet, shy and socially
awkward individuals. This does bother them cause I believe deep down in their
hearts they want to share this but most ofus are too caught up with the
possibilities to involve ourselves with the present.
I have seen
these people around me. I enjoy their company, their presence and their
essence. They make me happy not because they do things for me but simply
because they are who they are.
They are
beautiful for beauties sake.
