Lessons from a seed


What is it about life that makes it yearn to live?  To grow?  Even in surprising and unexpected places.

For example. This little seed found a small spot of dirt amidst the concrete and chose to grow.





The seed could have said, "This spot is not ideal."   "I don't have any neighbors."   "How will I meet any butterflies much less start a family?"

But instead the little seed found a safe home in the soil, energy from the sun, joy in the spring breeze, and it grew.
