In graphic novels, ancient mythology, comic books, and other media, we find characters who, when killed or otherwise injured, bounce back. Some of these characters habitually bounce back as stronger, faster, or with new abilities & talents. While many who struggle with injury or wonder about the potential or nature of healing dream to learn the secrets of super-recovery, maybe there is no secret. Hint from an older school: maybe these characters are manifestations of elemental "investment" or "reservation" for some unknowable circumstance... instances of the prototypical seed, in which untold breadth, depth, growth, and impact are implicitly and partly woven in a "lesser" package. The rest of that potential might then be woven in the seed's environment: the nature; the nurture; the nourishment; the toxicity; the sun. Across dimension and scale, time and concept, whether of form or simply, for instance, an idea... these characters can be said to have always been more than they were depicted to be, even more than they knew themselves to be. Some of them know, and choose to be lesser, for a time, out of consideration for what comes, what must be, and the proverbial writing on the wall that might guide the way between the musts through the might-yets. I suspect that we might not all be created equal and this is part of the resilience of life itself. I also suspect that, while we marvel at super-depictions of vaguely-human characters and archetypes, each of us, even the "least" of us is a seed more meaningful and -- in perhaps a not-so-familiar-sense -- purposeful ...than the "wisest" of us is likely to ever word or prove. Let's sow ourselves (and each other) with care; maybe necessarily for now: we know not what we do.
