Every seed has within it the magic to create something of tremendous potential!
Each seed has its own challenges, some are nurtured and put into fertile ground, fed, watered and loved and they are supported by stakes as they grow fast and healthy.
Some are eaten or fall upon stone, their life is ended.
Some fall into poor soil with little moisture, their growth is slow and difficult; they may develop scars as they lose precious branches through high winds, or vandalism.Their trunks may twist as they stand up to gales and fierce weather conditions yet even so these tiny seeds never gave up and kept pushing to meet its potential.It might be noticed that these often have thicker and thus stronger trunks than those who have had the support and nurture at the start.It is often through the battle and effort it takes to survive that gives each its strength and character.
We each have seeds of greatness within us, potential to meet, It is up to each of us to recognise our ‘greatness’ to nurture our talents, to find solutions to problems, to view obstacles as nothing more than challenges that strengthen us and make us strong.We have within each of us everything we need for success.
