Beautiful is a beautiful word. Why?
Because we have been using it whenever we felt good, or sensed some good experience.
How about the reverse logic? If we use this word to define all our other experiences, what will be the outcome? Will the word lose its meaning, or will the experience lose its unpleasantness?
Just try it out! The next time you undergo an unpleasant experience, such as when you accidentally spill coffee on your shirt, instead of saying your usual 4-letter word, try saying 'BEAUTIFUL' slowly and stressfully (definitely not sarcastically), as if you have seen the making of a beautiful painting!
You will be surprised to realize that your mind is confused and is searching some beauty in that experience. This is bound to happen. After all, we have been accustomed to words and their meanings so much that words now invoke reactions in us. We should use this to our benefit, and not be bothered about not seeing "a Rose in a Rose, in a Rose, in a Rose"!!!
