Gardening and Leadership

What would the world look like if there was only one kind of identical flower, one kind of tree, all the same, an unchanging cloudless sky, one kind of animal and one only? One religion, one and only one point of view, one kind of child--all boys or all girls, all looking the same, inhabiting one huge nation that covered the earth?

 

Variety is everything. Differences make the world great. Harmonizing differences is the goal of the gardener. Great leaders are gardeners, respecting the earth's diversity and all its peoples. Some demigods harbor a soul like weed killer, poisoning everything they touch. They can never hurt enough people to satisfy their desire for power.
