[famous_quotes] Rose
A small good story about the ROSE.
THE ROSE WITHIN
A certain man planted a rose and watered it faithfully and before it
blossomed, he examined it.
He saw the bud that would soon blossom, but noticed thorns upon the stem and
he thought, "How can any beautiful flower come from a plant burdened with so
many sharp thorns? Saddened by this thought, he neglected to water the rose,
and just before it was ready to bloom... it died.
So it is with many people. Within every soul there is a rose. The God-like
qualities planted in us at birth, grow amid the thorns of our faults. Many
of us look at ourselves and see only the thorns, the defects.
We despair, thinking that nothing good can possibly come from us. We neglect
to water the good within us, and eventually it dies. We never realize our
potential.
Some people do not see the rose within themselves; someone else must show it
to them. One of the greatest gifts a person can possess is to be able to
reach past the thorns of another, and find the rose within them.

S.Gandhi
