Once a wise old teacher was speaking to a group of young and eager students. He gave them the assignment to go out by the side of some lonely road and find a small, unnoticed flower. He asked them to study the flower for a long time. "Get a magnifying glass and study the delicate veins in the leaves, and notice the nuances and shades of color. Turn the leaf slowly and observe its symmetry. And remember: this flower might have gone unnoticed and unappreciated if you had not found and admired it." When the class returned after carrying out the assignment, the wise old teacher observed, "People are just like that unnoticed flower, too. Each person is different, carefully crafted, uniquely endowed. But you have to spend time with a person to know this. So many people go unnoticed and unappreciated because no one has ever taken time with them and admired their uniqueness."  Quote this article on your site | Views: 274 | Print | E-mail
