[p=30, 2, left][size=3][color=black][/color][/size] [/p][p=30, 2, left][size=3][color=black]When we plant a rose seed in the earth, we notice it is small, but we do not criticize it as “rootless and stemless.” We treat it as a seed, giving it the water and nourishment required of a seed.[/color][/size]
[size=3][/size][size=3][color=red] When it first shoots up out of the earth, we don’t condemn it as immature and underdeveloped, nor do we criticize the buds for not being open when they appear. We stand in wonder at the process taking place, and give the plant the care it needs at each stage of its development.[/color][/size]
[size=3][color=black] The rose is a rose from the time it is a seed to the time it dies. Within it, at all times, it contains its whole potential. It seems to be constantly in the process of change: Yet at each state, at each moment, it is perfectly all right as it is.[/color][/size]

[size=3][color=#1f7a1f][font=Tahoma][font=宋体][p=30, 2, left][color=#000000][font=Tahoma]**** Hidden Message *****[/font][/color][/font][/font][/color][/size][/p] When it first shoots up out of the earth, we don’t condemn it as immature and underdeveloped, nor do we criticize the buds for not being open when they appear. We stand in wonder at the process taking place, and give the plant the care it needs at each stage of its development.
当它第一次破土而出时，我们不会怪它的稚嫩和幼小，也不会在它长出花蕾时责备它为何还不绽放，我们只是期待着它成长的每一个步骤，给予它每一次成长所需要的照顾。
A flower is not better when it blooms than when it is merely a bud; at each stage it is the same thinga flower in the process of expressing its potential.
盛开的鲜花并不比含苞待放的花蕾更好，因为鲜花成长的每一步都在展现它无限的潜能 :qq83]
