Beauty and the reaction

What is beauty? Sure, we all have many definitions. Why do we react in certain manner towards something beautiful, as per our defn?

There is some kind of appreciation, excitement in our mind, upliftment of our mood. We also get an inclination to possess the object of beauty. Or leave out a sigh if we understand the object is beyond our current reach. What is this need for possessing? Is it owner's pride to show-off or some kind of attachment with the beauty?

As said in Selfish Gene, could beauty imply sound health? May be we opt or try to pick like wise. If that be true, our evolution path should take us to more and more beautiful surroundings, beautiful people, beautiful experience and events. Of course, that will happen only when we stop our self destructive operations.
