A Thing of beauty is joy forever

Beauty is the greatest and the vastest source of joy in this cosmic universe. Each particle in this beautiful and soulful world has essence of beauty _beauty is the parent of joy. It is insurmountable, it roots out grieves and gloom from one's heart, gives blooming joy and takes to the gala and soulful world. It is infinite blessing of GOD which is worthy of admiration and sweetest source of joy.

Beauty is untiring attraction for artists like the infinite gravitation of black holes. Sculptures depict the nature, make idols and whiff the soul of beauty in it. Poets hug beauty of universe and give breath of beauty in their words. Flute man with his flute sings language of soul with essence of beauty. Singers take voice of heavens and sing among souls and angles. And, painter with his colors make the beauty infinite. Work of artist is essence of beauty _where there is existence of art there is presence of beauty and where is presence of beauty there is essence of joy.

World is poured with purest beauty which makes eyes behold it forever, makes tongue to sing songs of praise for it. Compels hands to compose poems for it, makes brains to be in its fantasy, Pulls feet to move towards it, makes body worship and makes soul lover of it. Sky, moon, stars, tress, birds and seasons how beautiful they are! They are real soul of joy _an infinite joy. He who beholds its beauty a moment that moment becomes eternal joy for him which flows in soul like a river.

Nature is full with beauty from a star to a flower there are thousands sources of beauty and each source becomes the eternal joy for man. Beauty of nature in first espy gives sweetest smile to the soul. A smile of beauty changes the lives. Indeed, Thing of beauty is joy forever.

"Beauty is truth and truth beauty." John Keats

Ugliness that lies within him, definitely comes before people one day in future.As appearances are deceptive,he can take in us by his handsomeness of face.We can be impressed with his beauty and even sometimes, we get envious of his handsomeness too but this is because we are not aware of the fact that beauty is only skin deep.Beauty of a character has much more importance than the beauty of a face.As Ninon said," That which is striking and beautiful is not always good, but that which is good is always beautiful."

People generally dislike talking to a person who is outwardly ugly, even they do not want him to sit beside them.For instance:A child is drowning into water in the presence of two persons namely a person with with inner beauty and another person with outer beauty.The handsome person does not want to lose his life by jumping into water whereas the person with inner beauty does not shirk from it at all.He , on the spot, jumps into the water at the cost of his own life so as to save the life of the drowning child. It shows the people standing there that the ugly-faced person whom they did not like, has proved to be a diamond and the handsome person who ruled over their hearts by attracting them through his beauty, has emerged as worthless and valueless. According to Ruskin "Remember that the most beautiful things in the world are the most useless; peacocks and lilies, for example.

We should learn from the line that all that glitters cannot be gold. We must not be taken in by the cunning looks of a person.And besides it, we should also give much importance,value and deep respect to those who have been blessed with the gift of the most precious thing of the world, i.e. inner beauty or handsome character.According to James Ellis " Better an ugly face than an ugly mind."

Quite well. Much better than previous one. Try to give authentic examples. You could have given example of HAZRAT BILAL PBUH.
Good use of quotations.
Again I shall say, try to stay at the topic. Never derail. Though, you have taken the track well.
Overall, Fantastique.

TOPIC:..... CHARM STRIKES THE SIGHT BUT MERIT WINS THE SOUL

[/B]Beauty has the power to capture oUr senses but it is only quality that appeals to one's soul.Things that are beautiful apparently attracts us, after a period of time , they will cease to get hold on of our senses if they lack due qualities.It is the quality which remains as yatdstick of capturing the hearts.
There is an opposite relationship btw mind and heart.Mind goes by apparent rationale of the items whereas heart demands purity and integrity.Eyes admires what they see , they dont go into scouring the qualities of a product which has to last long.The integrity and purity are characteristics which have to remaing long & effect the result.Beauty has temporary nature whereas merit continues to stay long & it furnishes wid the passage of time as well.The physical appearence doesnt matter too much to soul because soul is eternal Soul only appreciates those things which give benefit, pleasure & peace for time to come.Eyes dont prefer merit because they always have to see beauty &glamour in things irrespective of wether those beautiful things benefit in the long run ,wether rhe beauty can affect or give productive results.
The appointment of a Negro ( hazrat Bilal R.A) to the status of imam wasnt on the basis of his beauty.Had Prophet S.a.w saw his outer beauty he couldnt have delievered invaluable services to the cause of islam.similarly, Prophet saw ordered to obey the leader even he's defarmed.Negro provided the posses qualities of leadership.Prophet ( saw ) also told us that Allah doesnt look to your faces and appearences but your deeds.Similarly the ouster of white presidient of USA was the ratification of this fact.
This isnt to say that aestheticism has nothing to do.Its worth lies only in temporary pleasure of sight.the eternal happiness is given by merit &quality.Integrity,honesty,righteousness &truthfulness have always been the standards of knowledgable people.There are fools who set glamour,beauty ,charm & decoration to these moral principles.For man moral uprightness always outweighs outwardly appearences.
Today's world is being transformed into the world of aestheticism.The most important tool of preaching this doctrine is advertisement through media.One is forced to appreciate matter.there is so much glamour in other relations of media as well.it seems as if ethics have been buried under the rubble of rhis campaign for aestheticism.Man is gradualy losing the genuine yardsrick of judging the things . Touch stone of appreciation is being replaced from moral uprightness to only beautiful things.
It should be kept in mind that the victory belongs to quality not quantity.Beauty has always few days to celeberate and cast its spell but merit has the power to grip souls.Man cant afford to rejig his arrangment of nature .It will amount to challenging the creator, which will off course cause failure to him.[/B]
p.s: please ignore the spelling mistakes and increased word limit as i have done it.will be careful in future.!

The proverb means very need of thing makes life impossible. (The sentence is confusing) One who has nothing he (You are making this mistake again and again, there is no need to put 'he' here. ) cannot stand upright in the way of survival. Empty clouds never rain. A man with might, knowledge, perfect character and passion stands upright in life. He stands up in front of every misfortune and mishap. He is like a fulfilled bag that has strength to stand upright. A man who is uneducated, poor, passionless and materialistic he (same mistake) cannot give something out of his life. Can an empty bag give something out?

Man like Che Guevara whose bag of life is full with passion, struggle, education, dare and emotions he stands up in life without any shoulder or support. He stands not just for himself, but he stands also for others. He tries to give others their rights and like a true man, he never lets injustice and inequality take place. He leaves a fine character in history of mankind. He becomes like a fruitful tree which stands upright and gives fruit to everyone. Unquestionably, it happens when a tree bears and struggles in very hours of life.

Those men who have nothing in their lives, they ever (as I earlier advised you, try to put 'always' in simple affirmative sentences) need a support or shoulder to stand. They live on others food. Their lives are hand to mouth. They remain homeless and helpless on account of (on account of what?), they have nothing in the bag of life which can stand upright. They crawl on earth and forget that they have wings to use or they know not the skill of flying towards success. Those men are like a stick which cannot stand up without any support.

Alama IQbal says; “If there would be no compulsion in life, every one would be God. “ So, compulsion is part of life. One whose bag of life is empty he should be optimistic and struggler and start to fill the bag of life while burning candles of nights. Undoubtedly, every drop makes an ocean. So, one should launch (launch what?) and struggle with passion. An ant can kill an Elephant. So, Nothing is impossible for insurmountable. Indeed, that flower is the most beautiful which smiles in adversity.

rome was not build in a day

This Maxim coins the concept that if someone want perform a great task, he must have patience along with continuous hardwork. As great things need great time for their completion.

ROME, today, is considered a centre of architecture, glory and power. If someone go trace back the history one will find that this rome was once a barren piece of land. which, time to time, gathered beauty and honour for herself but all this happened with step to step completion of mini projects and now this all project a great picture of patronage and power.

The history, himself, indicates that great persons have acquired greatness only after decades. The brighted example is the independence of PAKISTAN.which started since 1857 and after a long struggle of decades, alot of hardships were faced. With time to time different movements and different resolutions were passed and the dream for separate homeland only came true on 14 august, 1947.

If one has to implement great ideas or want to perform great tasks, he must acquire patience and work hard to give his dreams a real shape .

brothers plz pin point mistakes ...... thanking u in advance for ur precious time.....

Brevity is the art, which wise has. All the philosophers, scholars and wise people use a few words appositely which carry the vast meaning. Like Moulana Jalal Din Rumi says, "Don't Grieve, whatever you loose comes in another form." How beautifully these words carry example about hope and life!

Bacon, the essayist, who is known as master of brevity wrote accurate words at exact place in his Essays and his Essays are read and studied globally. Because of beauty of brevity in bacon's Essays, he is eminent in the world of expressions.

People who make chains of phrases and if one talks about chalk to them, they talk about cheese. These people bore the listener. One must use brevity in his expressions and indeed, Brevity is the symbol of wisdom.

plz check my expansion and rate...!

EXPANSION:
there are many things in life which we tag them as impossible to be done.but the fact of the matter is that we have never given them a shot.labelling a task impossible to ccomplosh is a sign of weakness and defeat.if we had given it a try.then we might have achieved something.calling never tried tasks as impossible is per se a self-defeating argument.without moving a muscle or two and calling the task impossible is ridiculous and virtual acceptance of failure.therefore,it is imperative to give effort to any work before reaching any conclusion.

there are few factors wich lead to this kind of disposition towards matters..apparently the task is too daunting and huge to handle.the apparent difficulties of doing a work might deter us to take initiatives.another factor could be the lack of will and determination to carry out a task.the absence of will and determination might withhold us to take even first dtep towards that.non-availablity of required means and resources at our disposal is another factor in calling the task imposible to achieve.these are some of the prime factors which set our defaeting attitude.defeating because we call it presumably impossible whhen we have not even taken a step towards initiating a task.

this argumnet particularly has infiltrated in our ntaional discourse.whenever someone presents a challenging task before the public,we quickly tag it as impossible.in reality,we disguise our lack of will and determination,lethargy and slugishness,apathy and cynicism with the word impossible.when we say,for example,paksitani society ought to come at par with the developed nations,the riposte is 'no' or 'impossible' or 'a distant dream' etc.this attitude clearly shows that bfr trying the things we quickly resort to negative attitude.

we need to throw off this mantra of '''impossible'',both at our individual and group levels.we need to get rid of this albatross of ''impossible'' aroud our necks.the qualities we need are determination.courage,honesty,hard-work,boldness and sincerity.the amalgamation of the above traits will empower our mind and soul to march towards achieving higher aims and goals.
