A flower’s beauty is birthed in a seed’s ugly struggles.

Stars are not praised for shining during the day, but at night.

A flower must bloom inside first before revealing its beauty to the world.

The weak dread the storm, the foolish invite the storm, the wise avoid the storm,
the strong battle the storm, and the great overcome the storm.

A daisy blooming in a desert is worth more than a rose blossoming in a rainforest.

In order for a seed to rise, it must be buried in dirt; likewise, in order for the great to rise they must be buried in adversity.
