Embrace your darkness. Your roots are growing there.

 Beneath the surface, unseen by the world, life takes hold. In the quiet soil, where warmth and water meet in patient rhythm, roots stretch, twist, and deepen. They do not need applause or attention. They only need persistence, patience, and trust in the process.

So too with us. True growth—the kind that anchors us in storms, nourishes our purpose, and carries us toward our highest potential—happens in the unseen moments. It happens in solitude, in reflection, in the challenges we face when no one is watching. The world may see only the leaves, the flowers, the visible achievements. But the strength comes from the hidden work, the quiet cultivation of self.
