The Beginning Is Not The End

Palm trees drop hundreds and hundreds of seeds on the ground. Only a very few of those seeds ever actually sprout. The image shows two of them that sprouted in one of our front flower beds.

My wife was weeding those flower beds and pulled these two small seedlings up. That begs the question, was this the end of their short life? Or was the fact they were dropped in one of our compost bins and once they decompose and are placed on the ground around our garden plants will they become part of the plants they nourish, it being just a stop in their life cycle.

As the song goes: is All We are Dust in the Wind or is the cycle of Life endless?
