Odd one out

To endure, one must be patient as the waves beating against the shore. Though it may be slow, the progress is sure. The ground itself can be moved.

Walls stand until they are toppled. Then, they become merely a pile of rubble. That which obstructed has been reduced to but a minor hindrance at best.

We must wait to see the fruits of our labors. After each seed has been planted, it must be nurtured. Only then does it produce that which is desired.

Put your heart to the task if you would see results. The lifeless is destined only for decay. Make sure what you want will be worth the effort required.

When pushed by the world, we should push back. Let our actions prove their ineffectiveness. They will tire long before the breaking of our resolve.

Those who can be stopped will suffer the shame. Do not count yourself among their number. Instead, be that odd one who will inevitably stand out.

  1. Generally when the plant won't grow fast enough, that's when I start beating it with a club. "Grow, damn you! Grow!" It still grows when I do that, but boy does it turn out ugly!

    1. It will most likely grow into a stain. That is why one must be patient. Otherwise, you end up with a mess.

  2. When we become a person of our own making we become an odd one out. The crowds march to the beat of an established drum while those who are free mix things up and make trouble for the status quo. Patient or reckless it is our own thoughts and feelings that we live for.

    1. The crowds are marching to an undesirable end. Mixing things up keeps them from becoming stagnant. The problem with recklessness is that it can undo all of your hard work.
