The Seed's Beginning

The Seed's Beginning
A First Day That Starts Beneath the Soil

When a beginning comes,
does it feel like everyone else is already moving ahead?

Some beginnings are easy to see.
Others happen quietly, out of sight.

Deep beneath the ground,
a small seed begins its very own first day.

Would you like to spend that quiet first day with the seed?


Story 1 The Seed's Beginning

As the first day approaches,
the seed isn't sure where it should go.

Shall we stay and watch
the beginning the seed chooses for itself?


Story 2 The Seed's Place

While everyone else is finding their place,
the seed pauses to think about its own path.

Shall we look together
at the place where the seed decides to stay?


Story 3 The Seed's Attendance

Even when no one is watching,
the seed's day quietly continues.

Shall we follow the seed
as it shows up, again and again?


A Note to the Reader

Do you ever wonder
if you're doing things right?

Do you feel unsure
when nothing seems to be happening yet?

Like the seed,
there are beginnings that move at your own pace.

There's no need to hurry.
Shall we take this step together-slowly, gently?
