“A lesson from the lawn.”
Imagine
if a blade of grass decided it had had enough. It was done with having its head
snipped off every weekend and its seeds – its future – cut off in their prime.
Who could blame it?
Yet, what does that old blade of grass do? It
does not say: “I give up! I am getting nowhere!” It just keeps on
growing. It continually takes in the energy from the sunlight and magically
converts carbon dioxide from the air into food to make more leaves and more
seeds.A blade of grass is resilient.
You too, can learn to be as resilient as the grass. You may be cut down on a regular basis, yet your strength is in standing up, dusting yourself off, and starting all over again. Even when grass is covered in concrete, it finds a way to grow up through the cracks.
And, so must you.
Connect with your own resilience and keep on growing.
