So I root (扎根) myself and make an effort to grow in dirty mud. I do what I can to get as much nutrition (营养) as I can from the mud around me. I don't care how dirty the mud is and how bad the water smells. I go all out to grow healthily. After I appear above the water, I finally bloom happily.
Even though my flowers are not so colorful or sweet, I bloom successfully to show thanks to the mud and the water and bring joy to the world.

A fisherman once owed(欠) much money to a bad guy. The bad guy wanted to marry the fisherman's daughter, so he decided to offer the fisherman a deal.
The bad guy said that he would place a white stone and a black stone into a bag. The daughter would then have to pick out a stone. If it was black, the debt(债) would be cleared, but the bad guy would then marry her. If it was white, the debt would also be cleared, but the daughter wouldn't have to marry.
As the bad guy was picking stones from a piece of land which was covered with stones, the daughter noticed that he picked up two black stones and placed them into the bag. He then asked the daughter to pick one.
The clever girl took out a stone and "accidentally" dropped it into the middle of the other stones. "How careless of me!Never mind. If you look into the bag for the one that is left, you'll be able to tell which stone I picked," she said.
Without doubt, the stone left in the bag was black. The bad guy had no choice but to play along as if the stone the daughter dropped was white, and clear her father's debt.
It's always possible to overcome a difficult situation through out of the box thinking, and don't give in to the only choice you think you have to pick from.
