What do you say to life now?
"By whatever name I am called, I have every right to be here. I was created, wasn't I? I will let nothing stop me, nothing daunt me, nothing discourage me, nothing make me feel out of place, for my place is wherever I am. And if I cannot stay right here, I will grow somewhere else. Regardless, I grow. I do not have to be adored by the world. I have my place in the sun, whatever the world may think.
"The sun shines for me just the same. I look at the sun and I follow it. I bask in it. The sun is just as much for me as it is for the rose. The sun blesses the rose, and the sun blesses me. The rose and I have different purposes in life, that's all. The rose has only to be beautiful and sweet. I have only to be strong and thrive and, yes, I confess, while I am at it, improve the soil for the rose."
Dear weed, so far ahead, so fully and unabashedly you, will you teach me?
