Every day, let our words blossom lotus in some one's heart.

Be like a lotus. Let the beauty of your heart speak. Be grateful to the mud, water, air and the light.

When the mind is silent like a lake the lotus blossoms.

Every struggle is like mud - there are always some lotus seeds waiting to sprout.

She even smells like sin, like some exotic lotus.

May we exist like a lotus, / At home in the muddy water. / Thus we bow to life as it is.
