“I like trees because they seem more resigned to the way they have to live than other living things do.”

[Willa Cather]

 

Kent Nerburn, in his book Small Graces, gives us this description, “they have their feet on the ground, their heads in the sky. They have good years and bad years, and yet they endure…. When the wind blows, they understand the power of the unseen, and bow their heads before it.”

 

May your roots be blessed to aspire you to reach the heavens.
