We see many things but, it doesn't mean all of them are true.
Trust me, we all have been listening this since the day we born. But have you thought about it? Why do people say such? The reason will be clear if we understand it with an example.
But wait, why am I explaining Quotes in the blog? You'd come to know about that later, when we will go to the example.
Talking about the example, let's see a Cacti. What we see from outside is just a green trunk full of spikes. And because of such kind of image, a Cacti is always consider to be bad from the inside too. But it holds water from inside. And the spikes are there to protect it from loosing all the water it has.
And also, cactus make a great company when you are doing something productive and innovative.
