Your Definition

This is what I've reasoned beauty to be: Something that the mind uses as a survival technique. Without a survival technique such as beauty, we would not be able to recognize what is supposedly benificial to our survival. This definition mainly involves the search for potential mates. Since standards are made by society, it is only suiting that one looks for a mate that fits the social requirements placed upon him/her. The search for "inner beauty" is also important for survival. With "inner beauty" from one's mate comes emotional stability within him/herself, which is vital for a healthy life.

Beauty in inanimate objects and sounds is also a way of survival. "Beautiful" things, such as a fruit basket or a painting, allow one to know that the object is harmless and will satisfy his/her physical and emotional needs. Beautiful sounds from things like animals inform a person whether or not the animal or object is harmful or harmless. "Beautiful" music aids in emotional stability, which, as stated previously, is vital to one's health.
