One day the man decided to quit...�
He quit his job, his relationship, his spirituality... I wanted to quit my life.�
He went to the woods to have one last talk with God.�
"God", he said. "Can you give me one good reason not to quit?"�
His answer surprised him...�
"Look around", God said. "Do you see the fern and the bamboo?"�
"Yes", he replied.�
When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care of them.�
I gave them light. I gave them water.�
Its brilliant green covered the floor.�
Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed.�
But I did not quit on the bamboo.�
In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful.�
And again, nothing came from the bamboo seed.�
But I did not quit on the bamboo. God said.�
"In the third year, there was still nothing from the bamboo seed.�
In the fourth year, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed.�
Compared to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant...�
But just 6 months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall.�
It had spent the five years growing roots.�
Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive.�
I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle."�
God said to man. "Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been growing roots."�
"I would not quit on the bamboo. I will never quit on you." Don't compare yourself to others .."�
Your time will come, "God said to him." You will rise high! "
How high should I rise?" he asked.�
How high will the bamboo rise?" God asked in return.�
"As high as it can?" he questioned.�
"Yes." God said, "Give me glory by rising as high as you can."
The man left the forest and brought this story.
A happy and meaningful life requires our continuous input and creativity.�
It does not happen by chance. It happens because of our choices and actions.�
And each day we are given new opportunities to choose and act and,�
in doing so, we create our own unique journey." Keep going...�
