beauty
A community is only being created when its members accept that they are not going to achieve great things, that they are not going to be heroes, but simply live each day with new hope, like children, in wonderment as the sun rises and in Thanksgiving as it sets. Community is only being created when they have recognized that the greatness of man is to accept his insignificance, his human condition and his earth, and to thank God for having put in a finite body the seeds of eternity which are visible in small and daily gestures of love and forgiveness. The beauty of man is in this fidelity to the wonder of each day.

The degeneration of beauty and the promotion of ugliness, tied to the flowering of intellectualism, could be certainly be part of the Underhung stigmatized by Nietzsche.

Act for the joy and beauty of action not for the fruits of creation.
— Debasish Mridha
Act'. How many good people do you really know? I discount those who mouth out platitudes for the edification of the young, and who truly are 'good', whatever that means?" What a strange subject, and from such a strange person!" Everyone I know is a mixture, some with more good than bad, and it varies on different days,
