Answer 1

Step 1: Answer:
Even when everything on the earth's surface seems dead or dormant (as in winter), the underlying life force — the roots, seeds, and the potential for growth — remains alive beneath the surface, ready to spring back once conditions change, just as human inner life and spirit can be renewed through quiet reflection.
