We have a lesson to learn from the tree. You know, we are also shaped like a tree and we stand tall too. The tree has roots to ground it . And the roots are as deep as the tree is tall, for its stability and firm anchoring. And its highest branches and leaves touch the sky as if they had a connection with the Divine energy.
Most trees have fruit all over.
All the fruit laden trees automatically bend with the weight of the fruit.
Humility.
The tree stands in the sun,
braves drastic weather conditions but never refuses shade to the humans.
Generosity and compassion must be learnt from a tree.
But we humans are unable to
balance ourselves. Both grounding (ego identity) and spiritual (soul) activity
must be equally important in life. And the wiser you get, the more you have to
bend with humility, like the tree.
These are truths of life and
lessons from nature. Everywhere we turn, there are lessons we must learn. And
all the elements of the earth teach us something valuable.
