The achievement is appreciation. Your ability to be surprised and awed by beauty!

When everything else physical and mental seems to diminish, the appreciation of beauty is on the increase.

The enemies of acting are mood and attitude and other general homogenized disruptive entities. Whereas acting is about action - doing - and unless you can figure out a way to craft in an imaginative reality to which you don't submit, you're going to be out of control. You'll flip out. The job is to be surprised.

A rainbow is the product of physics working for your appreciation of beauty.

You have to create a track record of breaking your own mold, or at least other people's idea of that mold.

Nature didn't need an operation to be beautiful. It just was.
