The flower….

If we accept that the very nature of the universe is conflict existing in all things, that all things need to have opposites to survive, and if we also accept that all people are a product of the universe, then we can stop making it a fault to have differing ideas and different opinions.

We need to view conflict as an act of nature, not as personal assaults. When we can recognize the benefits of the struggle between the flower and the soil, the spirit rooted as it reaches for the warmth, the flower fighting to break free of the earth that covers it, as it reaches for the sun.

The flower:

It is in conflict with the soil.

What we see is a beautiful struggle.

There is no anger as we watch,

Just one path taken in the universe!
