Life is like a flower.
"No one takes the time anymore to stop and think. No one stops to think about life when they get out of bed, when they go to school, when they go tot work, or when they go to sleep. Everyday is like television show about your day to day life. It starts when you get up in the morning and ends when you go to bed. How do you keep the 'audience' entertained and interested as they watch your show? If you had to watch yourself, wondering throughout your day on the television, would you continued to watch or turn it off?
Your life is like a flower; growing up on the topside of a grassy hill. You are either growing with surrounding flowers, or you are the only one sticking out from the grass. You are this flower, just growing. Bees are like the problems you face with everyday. They steal a bit of your life away. They can bend you if your stem is too weak. They can make your pedals shed. Then they leave. What do you have now?
You grow, you bloom, you enjoy the sunshine, then you die. But how do you die? Do you get picked for a gift to someone or by a curious kid who thinks you are pretty? Do you wither due to lack of sun or cold or water? Do you get trampled on by foot or machine? You don’t know. You just sit there, right there, enjoying the flavors of life and the warmth that the sun can give to you. You don’t question life at all. You just enjoy it. But when you do think about life, what has happened to you that made you grow and prosper, do you hesitate or shrug it off? You cant change the past. All you can do is think about it until you make your next step forward.
Right now, you are a flower. Just enjoy what you have right now. When it does come your time to pass, do you believe that you will grow once again as a flower? Would you last longer than before? Would you have as many pedals as your previous life? Would you be a different color? Would you be a different kind of flower? Would you smell just as pretty as before? Maybe you will grow up in a greenhouse and live in the care of a flouriest?
...Why are you thinking about it now when the sun is still up? You don’t know. No one knows about how your life will be or where you will go. Just calmly sway against the wind, take in the sun, and keep your head up."

"My father says that almost the whole world is asleep. Everybody you know. Everybody you see. Everybody you talk to. He says that only a few people are awake and they live in a state of constant total amazement. " Patricia, Joe vs The Volcano
