Place where impressions fall

I feel, just as seeds on fertile grounds sprout and seeds on rocks wither and die, our reactions depend on where the impression falls..sometimes a hurting word falls on a rock in our being..and therefore we dont reach and can "see" it. Sometimes it falls on another part - and then it touches us to the quick. Same with the glance of a girl or words of a teacher. The true state of our being can only be known by our reactions to impressions..if we catch it and transmute the negative emotion (of both joy and sorrow) that part of our being has now become a rock. I think we will never find any soft spot in Buddha's being. Fully rock. And therefore he's the rockstar!
