>But there might also be a part of your therapy that's like a seed that's been planted, and there was no name on the packet it came in -- you don't know whether it's flower, vegetable, tree, even. You don't know how it grows, how long it takes, you can't plan it, you can't force it to grow. So you and your therapist just have to watch the plant begin growing, feed and water it when it seems to need it, put it in the sun or shade whichever it seems to prefer. Mostly you just have to admire how beautiful it is!
>I LOVE this metaphor. I just may have to use it, giving you credit, of course.
