The Sea and the Mountain (on the interconnected-ness of things)

The mountains say "look, the sea" and the sea says, "look, the mountains", but they are part of the same landscape. You cannot really tell where the mountains stop and the sea begins. The sea could rise up and climb the mountain, when possessed by a tsunami. The roots of the mountain extend deep below the sea. And they are beautiful because they are together... (t.y.m.)

Worms & apples

Here is yet another analogy about worms. We always talk about worms in apples being a bad thing, BUT just look at it from another perspective. The worm believes it is in heaven and this is the biggest glutfest on earth. The apple is being loved and appreciated. Apples are born to be eaten, whether by a worm or a human being, or a horse, for that matter. The only problem is you and who said it was your apple anyway?

Humans......

Pearls

Once upon a time there was a worm that pooped in the soft fleshy bed of an oyster. The oyster turned it into a pearl. It is in the nature of oysters to turn whatever life gives them into pearls. One day, women will fight over the pearl. One day, a thief may cut off your finger to own it. But the worm was happy enough to be rid of that piece of poop. And so was the oyster....

The moral of the story is.... human morals are questionable... (t.y.m.)
