* is full of potential. * is carried by the winds that influence life. * can be rooted and grounded in the soil of love. * digs deeply into what nourishes him/her. * grows quickly and steadily toward what enlightens. * can be tenacious, holding onto life with all he/she has got. * can wither if he/she is uprooted, or if the soil does not provide nutrients. * can be resilient, bouncing back from hardship. * can grow to spread seeds of himself/herself, his/her ideas, near and far. * must bloom to become all he/she is meant to be. * sometimes looks like a weed, but is really a flower.
