My dear,

Nothing’s ugly.

There’s nothing as beautiful as the story, and everything has a story; a story of time, of patience, of strength, and of weakness. Everything has a surface and a layer underneath that surface. Most of us choose to only see the surface, and not so well, if that.

The tree has the beauty of strength. The turtle has the beauty of patience. Water, the beauty of perseverance. Air, of unrewarded charity. And Man, of hope.

Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it.

Falsely yours,
Confucius
