2 seeds

Two seeds lay side by side in fertile spring soil.The first seed said," I want to grow ,i want to send my roots deep into the soil beneath me and thrust my sprouts through the earths crust above me...I want to unfurl my tender buds like banners to announce the arrival of spring...I want to feel the warmth of the sun on my face and blessing of the morning dew on my petals!"And so she grew.

The second seed said,"I am afraid .If i send my roots into the ground below ,I don't know what i will encounter in the dark .If I push my way through the hard soil above me,i may damage my delicate sprout...
