FROM A SEED YOU PLANT IT
WATER IT SO IT WILL GROW
YOU WATCH IT GROW OVER THE YEARS
YOUR AWED OVER THE CHANGES IT MAKES
AND YOU WONDER HOW MANY MORE
CHANGES ARE TO COME OVER THE YEARS
SO YOU START PAYING MORE ATTENTION
TO IT AS THE YEARS GO ON
AND YOU REALIZE THAT THE CHANGES
IT MAKES ARE TIED DIRECTLY INTO
THE PATH YOU HAVE CHOSEN TO LIVE
SO YOU START TO EXPERIMENT
BY TAKING OTHER PATHS
THAT YOU WOULD NOT NORMALLY TAKE
AND OVER THE YEARS OF EXPERIMENTING
YOU NOTICE THAT IT HAS STARTED TO WEAKEN
SO YOU STOP TAKING THOSE OTHER PATHS
YOU'VE BEEN TAKING
AND AS THE YEARS GO BY YOU NOTICE LITTLE CHANGE
SO YOU START PAYING CLOSE ATTENTION
TO THE PATH
BUT EVERY NOW AND THEN YOU CATCH YOURSELF
STARTING DOWN ONE OF THOSE OTHER PATHS
AND YOU JUMP BACK TO THE PATH YOU WERE ON
AND AS THE YEARS GO ON YOU WATCH IT
GROW STRONGER LITTLE BY LITTLE
WHICH MAKES IT EASIER FOR YOU TO STAY ON YOUR
CHOSEN PATH
