The flower, the dog,
the man, and God
For the sake of the analogy, you have to assume that these characters
can communicate. The flower and a dog were standing out in the meadow
and the dog says to the flower, "Boy it's getting hot out here.
I think I'm going to trot over into the shade." The flower
says, "You can't trot over into the shade, you've got to bloom
where you are planted." The dog says, "What do you mean
I can't trot over to the shade? Just watch!" So he trots over
into the shade and the flower says, "Wow! That was a miracle!"
It would have been a miracle if the flower had trotted over into
the shade, but it wasn't a miracle for the dog to do that.
