Some man grew a rose with love. He took good care of her and watered her. Before she blossomed, he watched her closely. He saw that the bud would open soon… but he noticed the thorns on the stalk and thought: "How can a beautiful flower be made from a plant loaded with so many sharp thorns?" Annoyed by that thought, the man neglected the rose, deprived it of water, and before the rose blossomed, it withered. So it is with many people. There is a rose in the soul of every human being. God is respected in us at birth among the thorns. Many people look at themselves and see only thorns - flaws. They despair, thinking that nothing valuable can come out of them. They never realize their potentials that God has endowed them with. They themselves cannot see the rose in their soul. Someone else has to help them - find her. If you help someone find a rose in his soul, he will defeat the thorns. And it will always bloom nova again… Neki čovek je s ljubavlju uzgajao ružu. Pažljivo se brinuo o njoj i zalivao je. Pre nego što je procvetala on ju je pomno promatrao. Video je da će se pupoljak uskoro otvoriti… ali je primetio trnje na stabljici i pomislio: „Kako može predivan cvet nastati iz biljke koja je opterećena s tako mnogo oštrog trnja?“ Ozlovoljen tom mišlju, čovjek je zanemario ružu, uskratio joj vodu i pre no što se je ruža rascvetala – uvenula je. Tako je i s mnogim ljudima. U duši svakog čoveka nalazi se ruža. Bog je usađuje u nas prilikom rođenja među trnje nedostataka. Mnogi ljudi gledaju sebe i vide samo trnje – nedostatke. Očajavaju, misleći da ništa vredno ne može proizići iz njih. Nikad ne realizuju svoje potencijale kojima ih je Bog obdario. Oni sami ne mogu videti ružu u svojoj duši. Neko im drugi mora pomoći – pronaći je. Ako pomogneš nekome da nađe ružu u njegovoj duši, on će pobediti trnje. I cvetaće uvek… iznova…
