Not at all.  One says a bracha on many things that one would much rather 
*not* see, and that one would certainly not go out of ones way to see.

Also consider the rainbow.  If one happens to see it one says a bracha, 
and quite a positive one, but one still should not tell others to go 
outside and see it.
