The Eye of the Beholder

I recently came to realize there is more to the saying that "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" than I used to think. Certainly, what is beautiful for one person may not be beautiful for another and the difference is quite often in the beholder. However, there is another sense to the word play here.

Carolyn recently was in charge of a Relief Society Enrichment Night and had as part of her responsibility decorating the tables. I don't know what the usual table decoration consists of but this time Carolyn chose to select various items around our house and arrange them in tasteful centerpieces. As a beholder, she was able to pick out and arrange beauty while at the same time giving participants at the Enrichment Night a taste of the decor of our home.
