Why hurry?

Whats the hurry to bloom? I ask the plant. It pointed to the bud that had fallen to ground unable to withstand the storm and said, perhaps next one will bloom in time to express my appreciatation to the old gardner. Perhaps it will be just in time for his daughter to pick the flower for her daily worship. Perhaps, it will be just appropriate for his young grandson to gift it to his friend at the end of the street. More often than not, the appreciation, devotion and love go unexpressed just because they were being perfected and the mortals for whom they were destined departed, just like the falled bud. Hence the hurry to bloom; to appreciate, to give and to love..just for the sake of it. Sometimes you run...lest it may be too late.
I brisquely walked on the road with a new understanding.
