It seems to me that the most beautiful things we ever experience are made all the more beautiful by their utter transience, impermanence and fleeting nature. It is perhaps for this reason alone that living things possess a unique and transcendent beauty all their own. It is also for this reason of implicit impermanence that every truly beautiful place, person, moment or memory is subtly imbued with a sense of loss or sadness.
