Dandelion Seed

A little dandelion seed was taken by the wind and got lost from its flower. In those seconds where it was soaring through the air, it felt nothing but fear. When it landed on the grey pavement, it could still see the flower that it had come from, but it was out of reach for the little seed.

One day somebody walked by and dropped a fur jacket on the seed. It was blinded by the jacket and the scent of fur was overwhelming. When the jacket was picked up, the seed was lifted from the ground with it. The next few days, the seed saw everything from above. Entirely out of its comfort-zone, the seed explored the world, with no control over where it was being carried. 

Although it was an adventure, the seed browned everyday. It belonged in the ground and its fate was not to be with a fur. It was supposed to grow and bloom by itself, amongst others who appreciated and acknowledged its presence.
