Five Minute Friday: Beautiful

Joining in with Lisa Jo Baker for Five Minute Friday where you write unedited for five minutes straight.  Here goes:

Beautiful.

Everything is is society today is beautiful, or cute, or awesome.  Nothing is just average, or, heaven forbid, ugly.  I hate to be a curmudgeon, but not everything is beautiful.  I'm just as guilty as anyone.  I've yet to find a way to be honest and kind at the same time.  How do you do that?  I have a friend who speaks the unexpurgated truth, without meanness.  She just gives you her opinion, even if it's negative.  I envy her courage and honesty.

The word beautiful is so over-used, it's lost its meaning.  I must find a way to restore the beauty to the word beauty.  How are you doing that?
