Slumber party question! What's your earliest memory of encountering beauty? The first thing you can recall where you looked at something and were struck by how beautiful it was?
#i'm asking because i heard 'colors of the wind' today#and i remembered when i was little#i saw a commercial for pocahontas in front of one of our movies#and it showed 'colors of the wind'#and i distinctly remember a shot where she's standing on a cliff with her hair streaming back and leaves swirling around her#and thinking it was the most beautiful thing i'd ever seen in my life#(i didn't see the movie until i was much older and was very underwhelmed)#i also recall going to a county fair where a woman was selling doll clothes#and there was a pink dress with a skirt made of layers and layers of lace#i thought it was the most beautiful dress in the world and mom got it for me#(at a time when there was not much spare cash)#the other earliest moment is a memory of getting to walk beside my mother as she went to communion#and being so happy because my church had stained glass windows showing the mysteries of the rosary#so the front right corner showed the coronation of mary#and i thought that window was the loveliest thing i'd ever seen#it was the beautiful window into heaven only grown-ups got to see but this was my chance
