Alexis DeHearts 1st Challenge!!! What is Beautiful? NO MORE SUBMISSIONS!!!

Note: There is no special occasion for releasing this challenge. But I really wanted to… so there.
I was sitting in the computer chair, and having seen the word beautiful in a story, I can’t remember which, I leaned back from my keyboard and went into a state of deep thought.
What is the definition of beautiful?
Yes, of course, I looked it up in the dictionary after thinking about it exstensively. Here’s what it said:

1. having beauty; having qualities that give great pleasure or satisfaction to see, hear, think about, etc.; delighting the senses or mind
2. excellent of its kind
3. wonderful; very pleasing or satisfying

How often do we use the word beautiful, and do we really think about it?
That is a beautiful picture. What a beautiful girl. I use it often enough, but suddenly the word is strange.
I wondered if in the future there would be a set definiton of beautiful. I pray that this won’t be. For this challenge, I want to you to write about what beautiful is.
Interpret it however you like.
