The Heart of the Rose....
It is important to realize
that we can become “stuck” at any stage.
Imagine a seed that is planted in a flowerpot. It is fortunate enough to be in the
conditions required for gestation and birth.
After a period of time, when it is radiated by light (which it can't
see, but can feel through heat), it bursts through the surface. Now it can grow
... really grow ... but it still requires conditions. It needs light, water,
nutrients. If any of these are lacking
its growth may become stunted. A small
shoot is a miracle of life. A small shoot may grow into a Rose, at which time
its beauty is obvious to all. Its scent is appreciated by all because it has a
different power than when it was just a green shoot. It has the power of molecular diffusion. It may even re-seed itself in other
ground. But for all those seeds, they
will need to have the same fortune that the Rose had. This is why we need each other.
