On Top

Love the Earth and sun and animals,

Despise riches, give alms to everyone that asks,

Stand up for the stupid and crazy,

Devote your income and labor to others...

Re-examine all you have been told at school or church on in any book;

Dismiss whatever insults your own soul;

And you very flesh shall be a great poem.

~Walt Whitman

If you love a flower,  don't  pick it up. Because if you pick it up it dies and ceases to be what you love. So, if you love a flower, let it be. Love is not about possession. Love is about appreciation.
