Lotus
The lotus is the most beautiful flower, whose petals open one by one. But it will only grow in the mud. In order to grow and gain wisdom, first you must have the mud --- the obstacles of life and its suffering. ... The mud speaks of the common ground that humans share, no matter what our stations in life. ... Whether we have it all or we have nothing, we are all faced with the same obstacles: sadness, loss, illness, dying and death. If we are to strive as human beings to gain more wisdom, more kindness and more compassion, we must have the intention to grow as a lotus and open each petal one by one.
- A Lotus Grows in the Mud, a memoir written by Goldie Hawn, with author Wendy Holden
The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all.
- Disney's Mulan
Just like the lotus, we too have the ability to rise from the mud, bloom out of the darkness, and radiate into the world.

The Vagina Monologues, something audiences will long remember, was a moving, inspiring production...
[Tanya] decided on this particular play because of her love for theatre and her desire to help those in need. For V-Day, Centenary College joined in a global effort to end violence against both women and girls. This play was intended to raise funds and awareness ... Ten percent of the net profits made from the Centenary College production went toward the V-Day 2010 Spotlight on Women of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Any additional money made went to the Jersey Battered Women's Service. I attended opening night and thought that Wheelock did a great job in direction ... Each girl fit the part perfectly. The play was highly entertaining and informative ... It all would not have been possible without everyone onstage and behind the scenes working as well together as they did.
