Solution
It is difficult to describe or define beauty. But beauty attracts everybody and is appreciated all over the world. Where does beauty lie in? Well, it is visible in the sunlight, the trees, the birds, the crops, and the harvesters who dance merrily. Beauty is heard in the night when the wind blows or rain falls or some singer Sings. But the real beauty lies in noble actions and thoughts at all times whether working or resting.
