Like every flower wilts, like each youth yields to age, so each stage blossoms. Each wisdom and each virtue flowers in its own time, and must not last forever. The heart must, at each new call for life, be prepared for farewell and a fresh start. To merge with courage and without grief into different and new ties and bonds. In each beginning, there dwells a special magic that protects us and helps us to live. - Hermann Hesse Even animals of the same kind-two deer, two owls- will behave differently from each other. Even your daughter's own little pet hamsters; they all have their own ways. I have studied many plants. The leaves of one plant, on the same stem-none is exactly alike. On all the earth, there is not one leaf that is exactly like another. The Great Spirit,Wakan Tanka, likes it that way. He only sketches out the path of life roughly for all the creatures on earth, shows them where to go,where to arrive at, but leaves them to find their own way to get there. He wants them to act independently, according to their own nature, to the urges in each of them.
