The love of beauty, or of our own existence. It even extends to the love of this planet and it's nature.

Big things inspire awe. Mountains, oceans, ancient trees are all things which evoke the other, the not-self, while little things appeal dierctly to the self we can encompass.

Giant buildings, tumuli, pyramids and etc. have always been an expression of power designed to awe and dimisnish those who cannot command them.
