I Talk to the trees
You can learn a lot from trees…..
A tree lives life at a slower pace than we do – respecting the slow change of the seasons, rather than the hectic, artificial pace that we have invented and now rules our lives.
A tree is humble – even the mightiest tree expects no praise for what it does
A tree develops slowly, steadily, without fuss, ever upwards
A tree is flexible – it knows that sometimes it’s better to sway in the wind, rather than sticking rigidly to a particular position
A tree isn’t selfish, it welcomes a whole community of birds, animals and insects – expecting nothing in return.
A tree achieves a balance – even though it reaches for the sky it maintains its roots securely in Mother Earth
Trees look after us – they shelter us from the summer sun and the winter showers and, at the end of its life, a tree gladly surrenders its timber to keep us warm
You can learn a lot from trees……
