The Seed

congratulation, it's a girl
aww, isn't she beautiful
 

. . . .

knock, knock
you know, your children should really go to church!
do what?
do you pray?
excuse me?
what would you say to Jesus if you died today?
I won't die today!
how do you know?
I don't but ...
see, you just never know so, what would you say to him
you know, I don't really have time for this!
[disgusted look, hands seed] you never can tell just by looking at a person
[slam - door shuts]
what was that all about ....???
school is about to start
I really have to get ready
just to prove myself that I AM somebody
to myself?
yes, to myself
are you sure?
no!
then why do you say "myself" if you are not sure?
because that is what I think
you think?
yes
about what?
everything!
like what?
everyday life
what about everyday life?
excuse me?
well, is your thinking constructive or do you just dream?
I suppose it's both ...
there, I knew it, you are wasting your time away just dreaming
I didn't day I was just dreaming
but you are consciously aware that you are dreaming
well, yes
you shouldn't do that
why?
because you are not doing anything constructive when you do that
yes I do
no, you don't because you are wasting time
I am alive
you are still wasting away
you loose when you dream, you need to stay in focus, always ahead
[puzzled look] let's just stop this conversation ...
well, I gotta go anyway and oh, here, take this seed
err, thank you .. I guess

.......

MAAAAAMMMMAAAAA!!!
what?
she is hitting me
why are you hitting him?
because he took my pencil
because he took your pencil you hit him?
yes because it was mine!
give her back the pencil
no, it was my pencil before it was hers
do what?
yes, I told her she could borrow it for a few days, now I want it back
[10 .. 9 .. 8 .. 7 .. 6 .. 5 .. 4 .. 3 ..2 ..1 ..]
okay, why don't I give you a NEW pencil
that's not fair
what is not fair?
that she gets a new pencil after using mine all up
okay, okay, I give you both a new pencil
but I want to keep my old one too because it's my most favorite
[stare]

you didn't handle that right
what?
the situation with the children
how would you have done it?
ah, never mind .. here, have a seed

.....

I should really get this done
then do it
I can't, I have so many other things to do
then you need to get more organized
it's hard
not if you want it bad enough
do what?
you just need to get your priorities in order
I try
not hard enough
here, take this .. it's a seed
what kind of seed?
you'll see ..
[seed planted]

.....

all I wanted was for you to listen, not yell ..
well, you don't listen either
I do listen
is that why you can't do anything right?
but I try
not hard enough
how can you say that?
because you would do better if you tried hard
don't put me down like that
I don't have to, you are already doing that
no I don't, I just feel like a looser all of the sudden
you just have to do more

I am really trying hard!
still not hard enough

..... maybe I am supposed to do something else

jump!
[jump]
higher!
[jump higher]
I said HIGHER!!!
[jump higher, touch sky]
you are not doing right, try again
[jump ..... ]
now come back down
I said come back down!
DOWN I said!!
.......

.......

oh look, isn't that flower beautiful!
yeah, it sure it but also very sad
huh?
step closer and look at it
[step closer]
oh gosh, there is a hole in the stem
yeah, I know
but why?
it's where the self-esteem goes
so ..
right, there is no self-esteem
does that mean this flower was born without self-esteem?
no, it was taken from her
how do you know?
because I knew her
the plant?
no, the person who planted the seed
I don't understand
that's all right!
so what is this plant called?
it's called "the seed"
huh?
well, it's like this, you go out in the world and you collect these seeds .. these seeds
go into your brain
.. your mind .. your unconsciously mind .. you thoughts, your dreams .. everything
is build on these
seeds. Only bad thing is .. there are good seeds and there are bad seeds and most
of the times our
brain don't know how to sort these seeds and when to many of the bad seeds are
planted then ..
well, it eats on the self-esteem.
what about the good seeds?
they feed your self-esteem!
so, in other words, it's people who give out these seeds, right?
right!
how do you know who to take seeds from and who not to take seeds from?
THAT wisdom you get when you believe in yourself
do you believe in yourself?
yes I do
how do you know?
I dream!
