WE ARE ALL SEEDS TO BE PLANTED
There is the planting of the seed. There is the germination phase. There is the breaking down of the seed to grow deep it's roots. There is the breakthrough of the stem out the ground, and all is just the beginning. A tip of the iceberg.
A seed that perseveres through all these processes may turn into a beautiful, strong, magnificent tree, but none of that happens without the seed first going underground to be broken down, and die.
Every season of your life will bring you a challenge of transformation, ask every tree that remains committed to these processes, it will tell you, better yet it will show you that it's problems did not end at ground level. Painful encounters of growth still continue.
Summer, autumn, winter, and spring amongst other things still come and challenge the tree because though the seed days of the tree may be over, the tree is still becoming, manifesting and living out it's purpose.

Speeches so well written, so well spoken you'd think this phenomenon is easy, painless, brief, and/or optional.
Now grown, I realise, that hey :
Sometimes becoming is not nice. Is not easy, is not painless, or brief or optional, nor is it a once off occurrence that is always pretty or glamorous because sometimes becoming can be quite ugly like under there when a woman is giving birth becoming a mother, or messy like a construction site when all that mud and chaos becomes a house.
It is a part of a human experience , a painful one at it. We are all becoming, in fact we are constantly becoming. Shaping up into something or the...
