Spread Your Roots

There are several definitions of the word roots depending on the perspective you are looking at it from. Naturally, roots are the underground organs that lacks buds or leaves or nodes, which absorbs water and mineral salts, and then anchors the plant to the ground.

From a more elaborate perspective, the word root is a condition of belonging to a designated place or group by virtue of social or ethnic or cultural linage. In other words, to become roots is to become grounded, settled or established and stable in one's residence or lifestyle. You can call it consistency.

The word "spread" is the process or result of dispersing, distributing, or extending over a wide expanse of space. Watch this! The word spread is not limited in anyways, as it envisage something widely dispersed.

Every day we sow different seeds into different fields and works of life, just the way seeds are sown into our lives. Some germinate while some others don't. Some experience stunted growth in the course of life, while others experience ripened growth. These are processes seeds go through.

In the morning, sow your seeds. In the evening withhold not your hands, for you don't know the one that would yield the desired result. Seeds here are not necessarily monetarily even though it's part of it. That is why the word " different seeds" is stressed in this writeup. To clear the air, these different seeds can be in the form of words(counsel), love, money, education, investments... I am aware of the fact that people can also sow negative seeds. But for this context, we are looking at the different positive seeds that can be sown.

Therefore, if any of these seeds fall on a good soil, falling on a good soil alone is not a criteria to germinating. The seed has to make deliberate efforts. It has to die, develop roots, search for water and the necessary mineral salt to enable it gain grounds and stamina, so it can now spring forth. The processes this seed go through before germinating is what can be referred to as the spreading of its roots. These are the realities of life!

Sometimes, we think it's all about the good or bad soil alone, but it's not. You may have the necessary conditions and atmosphere in your favour, but if you don't put in efforts, you may just watch them go by. Remember, you have an adversary, and we are not ignorant of their devices, but that should not be of too much concern to you than you becoming better by the day. Sometimes, the adversary can be ourselves. It could just be that there is something that is not in place that should be placed right. Your efforts, somehow, somewhere, draws help nearer to you! So make that effort, and spread your roots in the realities of life. #Seeds#Roots#Efforts#Germination#Realities of life.
