“The tree is more than first a seed,
then a stem,
then a living trunk,
and then dead timber.
The tree is a slow,
enduring force straining
to win the sky.”
-Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Studying trees I am memorized by the movement in the leaves,
the way the sun filters through,
the way they are reaching upward calling to the heavens.
The tree branches are most defined in our “Family Tree of Life”.
The trunk is the pillar of the strength of
our family.
The trunk shows its integrity as it provides the tree with it’s protection of the surrounding environment.Our roots will ground us, keep us connected with the earth. We will receive our water which we will
perish without. The earth is the mother of all. We are all connected to her.
The tree was created from a seed,
a small seed that carries the information on what type of tree we are, what we will look like, who the tree will become.The seed is the belief in a miracle.
May our trees of life continue to grow and evolve.
May we recognize our mother nature as our gift to survival.
May we give her the love that her life force has breathed into us.
Give our planet the same nourishment it has bestowed upon us.
I believe that love and respect are one.
May we live to respect everything around us.
Or we will perish, all or our tree, our branches, will die.
Always prepare for the trees future, and respect our past.
