The beautiful and the ugly

I just spend some days travelling trough Belgium, France, Germany and Switserland. It keeps fascinating me how different the general feeling is in different countries, the difference in landscape, in architecture, in culture in fysical characteristics, in language. They all have a different charm  and all share things which are really ugly. 
​
Lately I have become very interested in Taoist nature philosphy. It makes the distinctions between beautiful and ugly, good and bad much less important as it is nature to always move in waves between the opposites and everything carries already the counterpart within. As soon as you categorize something you invoke the opposite as well. Better to stay beyond that, with no names, no judgements at all. This strongly appeals to me.
