Stories of What I See #14/24/2012 After meditating on an issue about a friend's company and where it is going, this came to me:
Fortune planted a seed up on a high cliff overlooking the sea. It was a wind swept peak with hard compacted dirt and sand. As he dug the hole to plant the seed, he inadvertently cut the seed. 80% of it flew over the cliff to the ocean below. The other piece was planted with high hopes that it would grow into a massive tree - where from its vantage point, one could rule the sea. The tree miraculously grew - by the grace of God alone, but remained small, stunted, windswept, and always struggling. Fortune also planted another seed down in the valley not far from the mouth of the stream that flowed down from the mountains. Beyond the high water mark, the tree grew quickly into a giant. It provided shade to all of the area beneath it, and allowed coverage for animals and other plants to freely lounge in its shad and have a drink. It did not command the sea, But the tree surely became master of its realm.
