A Greenhouse or a Small Hollow

Some people are like glasshouse plants who need special care and can survive only under certain conditions. They are coy, delicate, hesitant and sluggish. The house they belong to is the world to them and each of them suppose they are the best in that world. They frown if their well-prepared meals are not served or medications not used when needed. They dont let even sunshine to touch them without glass gloves. They tend to isolate and consider unlucky those who are close to the door of the glasshouse which is the only passage to the outside world...

While others are like wild plants who can grow even out of a crack in a rock. They are used to severe weather conditions. They are content with what their soil and sky decide to give them. They dont lose anything from their beauty being tough. They let wind, sunshine and water glide over their skins and never feel the insecureness of not being shaded beneath a ceiling...

Hello, pretty interesting place you've got here.

So which of the two groups would you consider yourself to fall under?

I guess i am more like a wild plant yet sometimes i find myself trapped in a glass box...Even then i make a place for myself close to the door:)

I was going to ask what munatdfaatic asked. . . this post, coupled with the previous one on water - I would have guessed you had a yearning to breathe the air and take on the challenges outside the greenhouse. :-)

having a yearning to breathe the air...Yes, like many others do... but i can't say that i am looking for challenge...if a challenge is not giving me a hand on my journey to 'true peace' i dont need it:)
wow, too much psycho-analysis these days, it is fun though:) Thank you both!
