   Do you believe that all Creature on Earth are beautifully created by God?
   
   Why there are undesirable ones? Why are there are so cold ugly and disabled? Did God intended those human sufferings and blemishes?

   In  a God eyes surely! As we are unperfect we do judge what is nice or beautiful a lot but forgeting a simple fact. Everything was created by God and therefor beautiful in many ways.

   Things are as they are. Only humans have opinions of pretty and ugly. It is a mental concept. And they are subject to change by suggestion. Suffering is temporary. It is to be transcended. Love it or hate it, everybody will check some day. So it is better to have some philosophy of coping to get through the process, even if it's just imaginary.

      If you are saying it is only mental concept, what are the standards of a true beauty? complete? desirable?

   To our eyes they are undesirable but not to the Saints, some of which you may be familiar with, yet alone God.
   
   I'll just add one thing which is not talked about in our Christianity. The concept of Self-transcendence. We think of God as a finished product, but the Supreme is transcending Itself all the time. So yes, creatures are beautiful, but that does not mean that the Divine Planner has not left room for improvement.
   
   In my case, I feel that I am a good way down the road, but yes, still far from Home, and with lots to do. However, I am His child and will one day become perfect, even as the Father in Heaven is perfect.
   
   The only thing that I would suggest is that you see life like they do in Yoga philosophy. Look inwards, not out. Do not blame the world but love and pray. You will transcend infinitely faster.

   "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"
   It's human nature not to see everything/everyone as being beautiful. We all have our preferences and idea of what is pleasing to the eye.
   A person (you) may consider to be cold, ugly, or disabled may be the love of another person's life!
   Go anywhere, a grocery store, movie theater, park, beach, outdoor festival, or church and you're bound to see people (you) find unattractive who have a mate or spouse! Once again:
   "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"

      Yes. I agree with that. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but society have created already standards which are considered beautiful and ugly.But i guess, i truly believe, we are created unique and unequally for a purpose

   We are part of a reality which came about not through any super natural, godly forces but through the unfolding of natural cosmic and terrestrial events.
   
   The human perspective with all our outdated historical values is quite irrelevant to the forces of nature, be it an earth quake, a tornado, flood or drought, etc.
   
   We can only learn more about how nature functions, and cope the best we can by developing and advancing science and technology so we can live in peace and harmony among our selves and nature.

   Beautiful in looks or nature? There is flaws in every animal and human. One could find an imperfection in any of "God's creatures". In every process of creation, small mistakes are made - imagine making an artwork, even though it may appear flawless, you (the maker) may be the only one to notice its flaws. The moral here is, everything has some kind of flaw and everyone has there own battle but we chose to look at the positives and be grateful for what we have.
