Two seeds settled side by side in the spring earth. The first seed shouted, "I want to grow and send my roots deep into the soil. Then I'll push my sprouts through the earth above so I can feel the sun on my face and dew on my petals." She grew.
The second seed whined, "I m afraid. If I send my roots in to the dark ground I don't know what I'l find. If I push my delicate sprouts upward, I may damage them in the hard soil. I'll wait till it's safe." She waited.
A hen wandered in, scratched around for food, found the waiting seed and ate it.
Moral. Don't get gobbled up this week. Take chances to grow and shine in the light. Avoid procrastination.
Forget New Year's resolutions. Do it NOW. Amaze yourself with your writing today and every day.
