You'll grow when the time comes.

There was a seed. It was blown by the wind to fall on dry ground. It was full of big trees.

Some have beautiful flowers, some have the effect of admiring people, some so tall that they can barely see the tops.

The little seed looked at himself and asked the soil with frustration.

"Why haven't I grown up yet? Why don't I have flowers? Why am I okay?"

Clay gently replied.

"Because now you still have to build roots."

The seed does not understand because what it sees is only flowers, beauty and height.

No one sees roots, no one appreciates roots, and no one talks about roots.

So he thinks he's wasting time, is lagging behind, and may not be good enough.

Time passed so long that it almost gave up.

But even in the dark, underground, where no one can see, it remains quiet and patient.

Until one day it rained heavily, the wind swept.

Many big trees fell. Many flowers wilted.

But a small tree grew out of the ground.

And it doesn't fall because its roots are deeper than anyone's ever seen.

Stronger than anyone ever knew and more patient than anyone ever understood.

That day, the seeds learned

The darkest moments are not when we get lost.

But it is the moment when we are building roots to grow the day the world needs us.

Remember,

The flowers don't bloom all year. The sun doesn't rise all the time.

And man is not all simultaneously successful.

Some people bloom fast, some bloom slowly. Some may only have a chance to bloom once in a lifetime.

But often...The slowest blooming flowers.

It is the longest and most beautiful flower of its own season.
