Notes About The Poem

" MIND'S BLOOMING " MY PHOTO, ©

Image may contain: flower, plant, outdoor and nature

Character and Personality

As
 
liquids accommodate themselves
 
by 

taking the shape of the vessel they are

poured into

so 

one's personality is developed  

by 

adjusting to the mold his character 

provides!*

This is a terrific showing of how personality and character mold each other.

Clever analogy Demetrios. Referencing Character and Personality. What I love about this piece is you used the word vessel which is a person with some grace that is infused. So there is a complex of meanings all coming together in all written. That word vessel had two meanings and both meanings achieved your comparisons. Provoking play on words Demetrios. A fav my friend for the cleverness of words. Blessings my friend.
