The kind of plant you choose to be ...

If mankind was given the opportunity to choose whether to become a rose or a cactus, the majority would choose to become a rose because of its appearance and fragrance. The few that would choose to become a cactus would probably be because a cactus is native to their home land and not because of its appearance

Yes, a rose may be beautiful on the outside, but is it beautiful on the inside? Can it survive under tough conditions? Or even better, can it save your life if the two of you were the last things left on earth?" The answer to all of those questions is a big NO! The same questions were asked about a cactus, and the response was positive. Truth is, a cactus can withstand extremely hot and bitterly cold temperatures. It can survive for months in the desert without water. And yes it can save your life, because its inside has been used by past generations and it is still being used as medicine and an effective disinfectant of wounds.

So once again mankind is proven to judge a book by its cover, and making decisions based on the appearance of things, not realising that such decisions may not benefit them in the near/far future.

The kind of plant you choose to be, you shall possess its qualities, both outer and inner ones. So it's up to you, a beautiful appearance with bad qualities or an unappealing look with inner beauty and strength? Don't be a typical human being, make a wise decision.

Your life may as well depend on it.
