"If you think you are green, you can still ripen; But if you think you are ripe, then you can only rot."

" Green you grow , ripe you rot "



The ability to grow and develop are defining features of life. It is a biological imperative.

The instant you stop growing , you start dying ! The latter is associated with the notions of decline , decay , morbidity and finally mortality.

In order to keep growing , we need to push ourselves, to get out of our comfort zones. Of course , there will be discomfort  - like a strain one feels when a muscle that is seldom used is stretched. Holding out against the discomfort will make one stronger in the end ,very much like the muscle being exercised.

Comfort is the enemy of environment ," rotting " is detested , death is feared, growth is important and if we embrace growth , we are more true to our authentic nature as living beings -just like the trees spreading their branches, birds build nests and bear young....

Thus , think green and grow.
