Are you a builder or planter?
"An anonymous text from the Tradition says that, in life, each person can take one of two attitudes: to build or plant." –Paulo Coelho
I am one of those who plant. I weather the storms and all the changes of the season. I sow seeds and obsessively tend to my garden. It never stops growing and is forever changing. It needs my constant diligent attention, and allows me to create and embark on another adventure. On the other hand, you could be a builder that creates a beautiful, sound, solid structure that takes you your entire life to complete. Imagine all the nuances in that! Once your building is done, it is finished.
Which are you?
I dedicated over 25 years of my life to working as a senior Graphic Designer and Illustrator for UCB. I built a beautiful castle (Working for the Lawrence Hall of Science- on the hill, over looking the fair city of Berkeley). In a moment it was gone, and dispersed to the four winds. We plant fresh seeds, and build sturdy castles.
