Human Bamboo
Jun 27 2008
I was sitting in my garden the other evening just at dusk as a cool breeze blew in through the bamboo. At that moment I thought how like bamboo we are in spirit.
When humans are born they are fragile like soft new bamboo shoots just emerging from the mother earth. Soon they begin to grow, fast at first and then slowing yet always subject to the winds of change that train one to be firm and yet flexible.
Finally humans stand like tall stalks of bamboo strong and resilient against the forces of nature and the living experience.
How strong is your bamboo and what of the strength and resilience of your children?
