Flowers take time to open!


This flower took fifteen days to to open from being a bud. 

It takes an infant three months to five months to hold his or her neck steady, while being made to sit. From then on it is an ongoing process all being well to be able to walk between ten months and fifteen months. 

From scribbling to writing it takes about two to three years of time

It takes twelve to fifteen years of training for a person to be a Neurologist. 

It is almost a twenty years haul to be a neurosurgeon in the United States of America. 

Most of us take time to reach where we feel called to arrive.

The intriguing question is: what makes us willing to take such a long journey!

It is for the purpose of becoming what we feel we are able to be! Then we pursue living  for drawing benefits to ourselves. 

But a flower after it has has become what it was meant to be, gives itself to others, bees, ants, butterfly, and to be cut to decorate a table vase. Or else it will drop the petals and fade away into the soil that nurtured it. 

This is a question that comes up before me in the seventh decade of my life! What am I living for!

Is there a sense of openness to share my life with others thorough the professional service I offer. 

I keep pondering over this question almost each day! How much more can I be sharing and caring!
