“In year three there was still nothing from the bamboo seed. But I would not quit. In year four, again there was nothing from the bamboo seed. I would not quit” He said.

It had spent the five year growing roots. Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive. I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle.

“Did you know, John, that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been growing roots? I would not quit on the bamboo. I will never quit on you.”
