If at all there is an ugly flower, it is indispensable since it adds to and defines the beautiful one.

Like the flower on a dandelion, it is not glowing but it is useful, bees need it for pollen, and we eat them for lettuce, in other cases, I guess it is because they have a purpose and the plain has a beauty all on its own.

You shouldn't. It's human nature to only want to spare the "beautiful" -- whether it's people, stuff, plants, or topiary arrangements -- and destroy or discard what is "not beautiful."
However, logic and compassion say otherwise. Most of the people I know, animals I know of, and things I've seen and used are not beautiful but are far from worthless.

Because those who cannot see the visible glow will never be able to see the inner glow. If you cannot appreciate that, your normal instinct is to be rid of it, because it is an apparent "Worthless" object.

The mind only seeks what it thinks it will find... Such is a biased means...... But, to find beauty in everything requires a true understanding to which many of us cannot afford.....
