Beauty of the Beholder

Location

There once was a weed and a flower growing side by side in a garden. The flower was always bright and beautiful, bringing smiles to the faces that saw her. The weed was not so beautiful but people appreciated her anyway. From the flowers perspected life was a beautiful happy thing and complaints were a waste of time that she couldnt stand. The weed on the other hand grumped to keep from outright crying. The weed had always accepted the flower in all of her beautiful happiness even though she sometimes didnt see it. The flower, however, did not always accept the weeds complaints and would tell her that she should stop. This made the weed even sadder, for her best friend the flower could not see past the complaints to the pain. And did not accept her for the weed that she was. Moral of the story: accept people for who they are, dont try to change them.
