    A certain man planted a rose and watered it faithfully and before it blossomed, he examined it.
    He saw the bud that would soon blossom, but noticed thorns upon the stem and he thought,"How can any beautiful flower come from a plant burdened with so many sharp thorns?" Saddened by this thought, he neglected to water the rose,and just before it was ready to bloom... it died.
    So it is with many people. Within every soul there is a rose. The God-like qualities planted iin us at brith, grow amid the thorns of our faults. Many of us look at ourselves and see only the thorns, the defects.
    We despair, thinking that nothing good can possibly come from us. We neglect to water the good within us, and eventually it dies. We never realize our potential.
    Some people do not see the rose within themselves; someone else must show it to them. One of the greatest gifts a person can possess is to be able to reach past the thorns of another and find the rose within them.
    This is one of the characteristic of love: to look at a person and, knowing his faults, recognize the nobility in his soul, and help him realize that he can overcome his faults. If we show him the "rose" within himself, he will conquer the thorns. Only then will he blossom many times over.
