Just want to share what I have just read today... It says: "God wants us to live like the grass. Even if it's stepped on, crushed, burned and cut; It always persists and grows back even greener and stronger." It really inspires us to become steady and strong. Once you have Faith, you are not supposed to be afraid of the challenges and problems that come our way. But human as we are, the weakness in us make us feel down and even give up. But it's inspiring to know that we can be like the grass. They are just low-profile plant. They can't even be noticed. But they always have the fighting spirit to live up and continue with their life.

It's really inspiring to live like a grass. But indeed difficult isn't it? When people step us down our normal reaction is to fight back. I love the idea of living like a grass and I really want to but our pride keeps us from doing this.

It is honestly difficult... Human as we are, we easily tend to react negatively especially if we are being hurt and insulted. But if we put the grass story as our inspiration, maybe we can control ourselves a little bit, knowing that God will surely make us a better person out of it.

You're right aejey. I am hoping that I can always remember this when some people would try to put me down.

that's the right word "humble attitude" If only we have this always in us, we will learn how to be patient even when we are put in trials. But let us just keep our Faith and believe that God surely has better plans for us.

And grasses are green too, and green represents peacefulness and fresh. Nice sharing =) Thanks!
