But Is It Cool?

From the Roots of Asia, the Ace of Pentacles; from the Mahjongg Oracle, the Scholar:

It’s not about what it is, it’s about what it can become.

―Dr. Seuss

From a small seed, a diverse multitude grows. It's easy to bypass those ordinary opportunities, the ones that don't look cool, demand a lot of hard work or require patience to get to our goal. All we see is the tiny acorn, not the grand oak it will one day become. The soil we need to develop is within us rather than outside us. The Scholar is represented by Confucious who said, "Study and practice - what could give greater pleasure?" When we put forth a sincere effort, even with small tasks, we grow. And as we grow, more opportunities will open to us.
