A seedless papaya!

        Today my dad cut a papaya fruit for us to eat. What we all wondered was when it was cut opened, not  a single seed was seen. Isn't it surprising that the very true nature of plants and animals is to reproduce and survive? Of course, we (humans) have one more ability that is not just reproduce but pass on the knowledge gained to the next generation. But seeing an seedless one, just shock me.       After all, we all strive to survive and prosper.

Relax, just have fun.              After all, the design is meant for us to be happy. Do what makes you happy.            ...
