Thank you all for the nice comment, Junco, Noaslpls, Asif, and teacher Galina.
Asif, I'm grateful to have you leave such a meaningful and profound quotation on lotus here. It is worth for us to learn from lotus' unaffected grit in the bad or worse environment. Instead of being upset or depraving when encountering the obstacles, we should always keep our chin up. Thanks, Asif, I like this quotation very much! :)
Start from chat room, try to give comment, post some thing on discussions and write what ever you want on Blogs, than every body say, what a lotus flower of MyEC.
BTW Grace, do you have time for chat with me. LOL
A famous quotation of
Goldie Hawn
“The lotus is the most beautiful flower, whose petals open one by one. But it will only grow in the mud. In order to grow and gain wisdom, first you must have the mud --- the obstacles of life and its suffering. ... The mud speaks of the common ground that humans share, no matter what our stations in life. ... Whether we have it all or we have nothing, we are all faced with the same obstacles: sadness, loss, illness, dying and death. If we are to strive as human beings to gain more wisdom, more kindness and more compassion, we must have the intention to grow as a lotus and open each petal one by one. ”
