Here, where a thousand
captains swore grand
conquest . . .
Tall Grass their monument

One the unique things about the grass symbol is that you never find just one blade of grass by itself. You can find flowers, trees, animals, and people who spend their time alone, but grass is also surrounded by more grass. This makes grass a great symbol for unity and togetherness. Grass lives together and die together. You can’t mow only one blade of grass when you try to manicure your lawn.

Grass teaches us – Do things with your whole heart, with as much intensity as you are capable of. Means your objectivity and subjectivity are together.

Whatever you do with half of your being is going to bring you repentance, misery, and a feeling that perhaps the other part that was not participating was right — because following this part, you have attained nothing but a miserable state. But I say to you: If you had followed the other part, the result would have been the same. It is not a question of which part you follow, it is a question of whether you go totally into it or not. To be total in your action brings joy. Even an ordinary, trivial action done with total intensity brings a glow to your being, a fulfillment, a fullness, a deep contentment. And anything done halfheartedly, however good the thing may be, is going to bring misery.
Misery does not come from your actions, neither does joy come from your actions. Joy comes when you are total, united. It does not matter what action you are involved in, misery is the outcome when you are partial.

When you are total, it is good; and when you are divided, it is evil. Divided you suffer; united, you dance, you sing, you celebrate.
