A cactus is soft and juicy inside....like the hearts of many. Many people are trapped due to life's circumstances and adopt the hard prickly exterior... Someting about nature tells us more than we care to know.... Some times a poke is a gruff way to remind us about one's existence.. Do carry on poking! ! Cheers. Subroto

Unlike a cactus, to be like a lotus to invite bees is a good example.
