Beauty and Ugliness

Your love is not really love. These are jealousy, possessiveness, hatred, anger, violence; it is a thousand and one things, but not love. They disguise themselves as love - because all these things are so ugly that they cannot exist without a mask.

The word was created and God sent new things into the world every day. One day he sent Beauty and Ugliness into the world. The journey from heaven to earth is long - the moment they arrived, it was early morning and the sun was rising. They landed by the lake and decided to swim, because all their bodies, all their clothes were dusty.

Knowing nothing about the world (they were so new), they took off their clothes and, completely naked, jumped into the cool water of the lake. The sun rose and people began to appear. Ugliness played a joke: when Beauty swam far into the lake, Ugliness climbed ashore, put on Beauty's clothes and ran away. By the time Beauty realized, “These people are gathered around, and I’m naked,” and started looking around for clothes... her clothes were gone! The ugliness disappeared, and Beauty stood naked in the sun, and a crowd gathered around her. Finding nothing better, she put on Ugliness's clothes and went to look for him so she could exchange clothes again.

This story says she is still searching. But the Ugly is insidious and continues to elude. Ugliness still wears the clothes of Beauty, disguises itself as Beauty, and she walks in the clothes of Ugliness.

All the things that are ugly, you cannot tolerate in yourself for a moment if you see their reality. That's why they don't allow you to see their reality. Jealousy pretends to be love, a sense of ownership creates a mask of love...
