As you said "It matters not where we are in time and space or whether we’ve even met.<br />We still have an influence on one another." <br />I am genuinely humbled by the reminder that I am connected to all things and all things to me. Like the tree, I just need to be most powerfully and beautiffully--without judgement--me. My awareness pulsates. Another link between spirits has been awakened. Thank you is the least I can say. Thank you for being you.Pollardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09060351166913135187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2702829955655072282.post-24198772015895349792011-01-21T06:35:32.755-08:002011-01-21T06:35:32.755-08:00When I first saw this picture, before I read a sin...When I first saw this picture, before I read a single word, I instantly saw a heart. You can see the shape of it and the branches as veins and arteries across it. So when I began reading I was not surprised that you viewed the tree as life affirming. But you took it to an even deeper level, one which will forever change the way I look at trees. From my window at work I can see a huge bearded fig tree that is over 100 years old. Two years ago it was cut in two lengthwise so that it could be picked up by a crane and moved to its new location, right at the front of the entrance to the new Crane Village, greeting everyone that comes. It suffered a bit and I thought we were going to lose it. I hated to see it get ripped from where it had grown from a tiny seedling a hundred years ago. But it has settled in and has come back bigger and better than ever. Life affirming... indeed.flyingfish3https://www.blogger.com/profile/00464688527977619560noreply@blogger.com
