Beauty- is that the right word

There is so much of beauty all around you, even a truck carrying rocks, a bulldozer flattening it, everything.
The pace and preciseness of that work, it’s so beautiful. Sometimes I think there nothing more beautiful than a construction site. The khad khad of tools going on throughout day & night, so many people working on so many inconsequential jobs, it seems worthless and suddenly the building is in front of you, this end result is always so awe inspiring. There’s no better example of team work.
Then abruptly one day we realize that all work is done and all workers leave. Just like that. Never looking back, never taking pride in the work, they have done. Not because they are karmyogis or such but because they aren’t even allowed to feel proud of the structure they have erected with so much of toil.

It’s just so ‘paradoxically beautiful’
