Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

This can be very much the case!. But not always!.
There is a coworker I know who is pretty enough if one were to simply observe her somewhere!. But the fact that everything about her sets you on guard and her general nastiness ruins anything that might be considered "beauty"!.
On the other hand there are some who are beautiful despite being sad, angry, or downright uncivil!. They wear the bad side just as beautifully as the good side though their beauty may shine through more in smiling or in laughter!.
So mood or overall attitude can affect beauty but it really is a case by case basis!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

When we are happy, we tend to look at positive aspects of certain things rather than negative ones!.

When you are angry or depressed, you become sensitive and become frustrated easily because when you are feeling like that you tend to look at negative aspects of things!.

If you are talking about your feelings alone, yes when it comes to beauty it could just be our mood!. But since we are all beautiful in different ways, if you look at objectively, beauty is not only "sometimes" things!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

beauty is in the eye of the beholder,so if the eye is corrupted by ,lets say depression or a cynical personality then that eye (persons) perception will be colored by their emotional state!.
I guess the same could be said of someone who had a super positive outlook,that sees beauty in everything!.
At the same time Im inclined to say that the perception of beauty is a matter of past conditioning and memories /emotions envoked by the sight of certain things!.

No, beauty is there, it's just waiting to be discovered!. So even if my mood stinks and I fail to appreciate something, it doesn't mean it's ugly :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

Agreed! Like when in love everything takes a new sheen and looks beautiful, as if we are seeing the world with new eyes!. And when the song dies, its dull, dark and dreary once again!.

Yes, definitely agree!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Beauty exists everywhere in everything at all times!. We just aren't in the mood for it sometimes!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
