Steve MaraboliDon't let the tall weeds cast a shadow on the beautiful flowers in your garden.
About This Quote
When you're young and you're growing in your garden, it can be frustrating to see the weeds growing taller than the flowers. But when you get older, you realize that the weeds are what give your garden its beauty. The tall weeds in the garden might look bad at first, but in time they become part of the scenery. When you're young, your dreams might seem so far away that it's hard to believe they will come true. But when you get older and wiser, you start to see that there is a lot of beauty in the world and that there is a lot of life in your dreams.
