the point is whats so wonderful is that everyone of these flowers has a
specific relationship with the insect that pollinates it.
there is a certain orchid that looks exactly like a certain insect so that insect
is drawn into this flower, its double, its soulmate.
it wants nothing more than make love to it.
and after, the insect flies off, spots another soulmate flower
and makes love to it, does pollinate it.
and neither the flower nor the insect will ever understand the significance of their lovemaking
and how could they know that, because of their little dance the world lives!
it does by simply doing what they’re designed to do
something large and magnificent happens.
in this sense they show us how to live,
how the only priority you have is your heart,
now when you spot your flower
you can let anything give your way[1].
