As
a Seed Receives
Have
you ever noticed that the beginning of something can tell what the result will
be? When a seed comes forth from its pod
or flower, it is an expression from the plant that produced it. Everything to grow the mature plant is already
programmed in the tiny newness of the seed.
What
happens to the seed when it comes into contact with the earth? It may land in a place that is able to
provide conditions for it to grow well.
It may be rained upon just enough, have the right temperatures, the right
conditions, to grow quickly and become strong and beautiful.
Or,
it may not. Perhaps the seed falls in a
place where it just barely makes it. Or
maybe it grows, but does not flourish. The potential is there for that to change. Adversity contains the seeds of fulfillment.
You have the ability to become more than you are today.
Our
experiences as people are like those of seeds. Like plants, we reflect the heritage we were
born into, and the conditions that were around us as we grew shaped our
perceptions. Our shapes were created by
our way of acting on those perceptions.
Those shapes further influence the possible outcomes of our next steps.
Plants
also show us that amazing things can happen with the right kind of stimulus. A plant that hasn’t done well can be given a
boost, and surpass expectations.
As
a seed, you landed where you did. In
order to reach today, you grew in a certain way that is an illustration of what
you have received. You responded to the
stimulus to reflect your situation and your feelings about it.
I
invite you to visualize yourself finding fresh energy that feeds you with new
insights, new ways to take action in your life.
