How does a thing of beauty provide shelter and comfort?

We weave a wreath of a flowery band to remind us of our connection to the earth. One often forgets this connection in the tumult and turmoil of life. Human beings become unhappy and disillusioned with life as they come to observe the banality of their own existence. The dearth of noble natures, of gloomy days and unhealthy ways bog down the human spirit. It brings a sense of despondence because the search for beauty amidst that gloom and monotony becomes doubtful. One begins to wonder if the exercise of trying to find beauty in this world is a worthwhile quest or not. However, in spite of all that a thing of beauty which can come in any shape or form alleviates our concerns and moves away the pall of dark spirits. One can experience them in the simple sheep, the daffodils, the green world we live in, the clear rills, the mod forest brake and the rich sprinkling of fair musk-rose blooms. Beauty lies in the joys of nature that can replenish our soul.
