Growth

Everything that comes into existence has the impulse to grow and thrive. There is no point in telling life that growth is wrong because that is just what it does.

Yet there are different kinds of growth. That of cancer cells is more for more's sake, a pathological departure from the underlying template of the organism involved. This kind of growth is fatal.

The growth that pushes up from the nurturing dark of the earth and unfurls first leaves to the sun's light follows a template of reciprocity and interaction with the elements of its environment.

Perhaps sometimes it seems a bit slow, but it still cracks concrete as it continues to follow the inherent pattern of its being towards the energy of the sunlight.
