How could we see Beauty?
Does it lies in the subjects that surrounds us? Or in our own eyes and way we perceive things?
Could one find the beauty in everything or every person
he/she meet?
Is beauty a place, a moment or point of view?
If beauty lies in the place, why we could visit the same place twice and come back with different experiences? Why the same experience could not be replicated?
If beauty lies in the place, why we could visit the same place twice and come back with different experiences? Why the same experience could not be replicated?
Again, if beauty lies in the place, why we still find people
suffering from depression in these beautiful places? Sometimes even a high rate
of suicide attempts.
So, is Beauty perception just a moment? Does it depend completely
on our state of mind or point of view in life?
On this week, we left one of the most beautiful cities in
Germany, Heidelberg.
Being immersed in such a beautiful atmosphere and scenery views made it very hard to leave & very easy to ruminate into the comparing mentality between Heidelberg and every other place. My next stop was Essen, were I had my practicum week.
My first day was painted with a grey colour, but was it really the fact of leaving the beautiful Heidelberg or being apart from a place that I loved, and friends that accompanied me throughout this trip?
To me I think the beauty of Heidelberg was not just the beauty of the place, it was also the beauty of the spirit of our team, this inside spirit painting everything with the colour of joy.
So, in order for
me to find the beauty in ‘Essen’ my new city, I had to prepare my inner
self to perceive beauty, surround and fit myself with my new team and wave my tune- in the team spirit and finally
look for the physical and tangible beautiful places in the city.Being immersed in such a beautiful atmosphere and scenery views made it very hard to leave & very easy to ruminate into the comparing mentality between Heidelberg and every other place.

Tell us about the beauty you found in Essen!
ReplyDeleteThe music therapy team in Essen were amazing ! Personally and Professionally, this lovely atmosphere that they created provided me with a positive attitude towards my stay in Essen, we've also found beautiful places to visit in Downtown, such as the Münster church and the Opera House.
ReplyDeleteI also felt that other cities are easily reachable and connected from here, one could go to köln, Düsseldorf or Bonn in an hour or two for a wonderful day trip !
The people that i met were so friendly and open with others.
Moreover,I got an extra surprise to meet an old friend just by chance in Downtown Essen ! :)
