An illustration of flower.

One of the best illustration of our human life is flower.
Although it cannot speak, smell, hear or see as we do, it can grow from zero to something so amazing for everyone to see.

This is not a poetic entry and I definitely have nothing more to share than a thought.

Flower started all basically from a seed. I'll skip the scientific explanation (for easy understanding) but it always amaze me how this tiny little thing can blossom into something so beautiful. Like all these wild flowers below, their growth are not controlled by human (of course, nowadays, scientist can manipulate these traits already but anyway, lets go back to the basic) and their physical colours are not determined by how much water were watered but by their genetic trait (specifically, DNA). If human were a flower seed, I'm pretty sure we won't know what colour we will show as we grow. Same as in our life, at our infant stage, we were unconcious of these things. As we got older, we still weren't able to see clearly enough how far we can go or to what extent we can grow. But by looking at these flowers, isn't it encouraging to know that we can blossom in such a way that finally leads to a productive life?

Another thing about flowers is that, one species is different from the other. Yet, these flowers can live and grow together in harmony, without destroying one another. Plus, its the color that pops out rather than the weeds. Just like us, we are different from one another. Different talent, different personality, different culture, different height (different weight? =)), and the list goes on and on...

I'm just simply trying to say that its encouraging to learn from these abundant nature God created that we often overlook. Love love looking at nature stuffs (Well, i guess its genetic. =))




P.s.- Personally, recalling back, as i write this entry, a friend of mine gave me a nickname "flower" before when i was young. I never know why. But I guess its just for fun. =) #justsaying
