A flower, no matter how beautiful, still has to grow in dirt.

About This Quote

A flower, no matter how beautiful, still has to grow in dirt. It’s easy to assume that all flowers are beautiful, but just because something is beautiful doesn’t mean it is necessarily good. We often think of beauty as an outward physical trait, like a flower or a person’s eyes or hair. But there is also beauty within the heart and soul.

The beauty of the heart and soul can be seen in the way people treat each other, especially those they love. When bad things happen to someone close to us, we may become disheartened and give up fighting for that person or situation. We may tell ourselves that it’s impossible to change it or that the person is beyond our help.

This quote is saying that even though something seems impossible, we can still fight for it if we hold on with faith and courage.
