the seed is hope...

"Whether you tend a garden or not, you are the gardener of your own being, the seed of your destiny."


"The seed has no idea of being some particular plant, but it has its own form and is in perfect harmony with the ground, with its surroundings ... and there is no trouble. This is what we mean by naturalness."
Shrunyu Suzuki, Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind


"Find the seed at the bottom of your heart and bring forth a flower."
Shigenori Kameoka
