As I got closer to take the picture of this beautiful palm
tree on my recent vacation, I was turned off by all the dried shrubs and bushes that surrounded it. Then
I noticed something interesting. The palm tree grew above those shrubs and
looks splendid with its beautiful blossoms; and if you don’t look down
you would never notice the unsightly shrubs. That was another reminder to me, that neither
my situation or station in life, my surroundings, my family or where I come
from should prevent me from being the
person that I know I can be. I can do
this by uplifting myself through education, the seeking of knowledge and truth and
the conscious effort to grow as a person. I will stand apart by my actions, the
words that I speak and the way I carry myself. I want to be always like this palm tree and
separate myself. You can learn so much from nature; they can be such great
reminders of how life ought to be… so amazing!
