| Are you a builder or a planter? CheBourdain7 26 Dec 07 1:40PM | Thread Closed |
" In his or her life
each person can take one of two attitudes
to build or to plant.
Builders may take years over their tasks
but one day they will finish what they are doing.
Then they will stop, hemmed in by their own walls.
Life becomes meaningless
once the building is finished.
Those who plant suffer the storms
and the seasons never rest.
Unlike a building, a garden never stops growing.
And its constant demands
on the gardeners attentions,
it makes the gardener's life a great adventure."
- Paulo Coelho

yah, i thought so too. maybe it's the really bad translation of what might be a fine poem in spanish or portuguese that makes this seem so mean?
