this is a cool bonus: the way of beauty (the ethical aesthete)


 “the philosophical aesthete”

 

by ben bussewitz

 

The way in which one is able to call into the situation of his or her surroundings true light of which is the good sight of truth, beauty, and life: the omnipresent monad is the vivaciousness of endless love, in every direction.  One finds her love in the world when one looks into the eyes of the soulmate, or in the flock of geese fluttering and flying highly in the wind, the dripping of icicles as the snow passes into Spring day, the sunrise and shine when the light fills up the atmosphere of this beautiful planet.  Where one looks, where one shines her eyes, there is beauty (if only it is in the view of her eyes).  There is endless beauty, infinitely understood, there is infinite beauty, endless streams of music, novels, poetry, and good people.  In our song of life, with the happy days in our fate, we share the goodness of each other, the human family.

 

Therefore: what is our ethical authority of the philosophical aesthete?  The way in which one has good happiness in the noble vision is to see the beauty in one’s eyes.  The way in which to frame any situation, we are in the goodness of God’s prize for us, Mother Earth, with her perfect weather, with her endless praises, with her happy days, and sometimes the days may be trying or difficult to maintain, but, as we can all relate to— there is always happiness on the way.


The way of ethical action shows the best way to treat another person.  We shall show good morals, kind responsibility, good manners, good actions.  Share good speech, share good ideas, oblige by one another’s well-timed and responsible plans, and do that with the vision of good life.

 

We have good happiness in all of our days.  Even those of us who are often in sadness find moments of catharsis, peace, deep meaning, tranquility.  We look hard to find our ways, and it is good to search deeper, find more meaning, find deeper peace, find more answers, dig deeper into life’s most meaningful questions.  Will we walk our path beside God?  Will we walk our path in striving for the best for our friends, neighbors, family?  Will we offer more than mere personal responsibilities, and truly reach out, be a good community member who strives for the best for all people?  This is within our capabilities.  This allows us to see our own beauty.  This allows us to see our own beauty in our own ethical strivings and good lives.

 

The way in which we see this good blossoming and goodness in who we are enables us to be happy for others, for the people we are blessed to live beside, for loving, perfect, and beautiful Mother Earth.
