Two seeds lay side by side in fertile spring soil.The first seed said,"
I want to grow ,i want to send my roots deep into the soil beneath me
and thrust my sprouts through the earths crust above me...I want to
unfurl my tender buds like banners to announce the arrival of
spring...I want to feel the warmth of the sun on my face and blessing
of the morning dew on my petals!"And so she grew.
The second seed said,"I am afraid .If i send my roots into the
ground below ,I don't know what i will encounter in the dark .If I push
my way through the hard soil above me,i may damage my delicate
sprout... what if i let my buds open and a snail tries to eat them?And
if i were to open my blossoms, a small child may pull me from the
ground.No ,it is much better for me to wait until it is safe ".Ans so
she waited.
A yard hen,scratching around in the
early spring ground for food,found the waiting seed and promptly ate it
.
So, Those of us who refuse to risk & grow, get swallowed by life.
