We Must Confess

I recently asked my class “what is beautiful?” here were some of my favorite responses:

- “trophies”

- "me when I’m being nice to new people and showing them things like where the bathroom is”

- “sparkly earrings and swirly bracelets”

- “the sun when it looks like a fire”

- “a big bowl of popcorn that I don’t have to share”

- “Luke Skywalker and how he always beats bad guys like Darth Vader because Darth Vader is bad and Luke is always gonna be good because he’s a good guy and he has the right light saber”

- “baby monkeys who kiss their mama”

- “100% on my math test. Not the easy one we did on even and odd numbers, but that hard one we did before”

- “strawberry lime margaritas served by shirtless men with great personalities who give free massages and sell designer shoes on the side at reasonable prices”

The last one might have been mine. What would you say is beautiful?
