Exactly - because it's a semantic shorthand. Sunsets are fucking boring, ugly, transient phenomena. Watching a sunset while feeling safe and relaxed, maybe in a company of your love interest who's just as high on endorphins as you are right now - this is what feels beautiful. This is a sunset that's beautiful. But the sunset is just a pointer to the experience, something others can relate to, not actually the source of it.
- drewbeck 1y agoI’ve seen incredible sunsets while stressed depressed and worse. Are you saying sunsets cannot be experienced as beautiful on their own?
