You can't get the beauty of flowers by picking petals. What do you mean?

The sentence that picking petals can't get the beauty of flowers can be understood as that when we try to pick petals, we can't get the beauty of flowers. This is because the beauty of flowers lies not only in the appearance of petals, but also in their inherent vitality and freshness. When we only pay attention to the petals and ignore the whole flower, it is difficult to truly appreciate the beauty of the flower.

This metaphor can be used to explain a phenomenon that we often encounter in our daily life. We often only see superficial phenomena, but ignore the essence and inner beauty of things. For example, we may only pay attention to a person's appearance and ignore his personality, talent and morality. Similarly, in the process of pursuing career and material wealth, we may also ignore the beauty around us, such as family, friendship and love.

So this metaphor reminds us to learn to appreciate the inner beauty and overall beauty of things. In daily life, we should discover the beauty and happiness around us with our heart, not only pay attention to superficial phenomena, but also feel and experience the world through emotional ways to make life full of color and vitality.
