I meant it in the Buddhist sense of a lotus flower not being able to grow on a bed of marble, it needs its roots buried in dirty mud. Some amount of adversity is needed in order to grow and build character.
- malfist 5y agoThat doesn't make any sense. To a lotus, mud isn't adversity, it's its preferred growing environment. A bed of marble would be it's adversity, and as you pointed out there, it doesn't build character in a bed of marble.
