Roots

I was talking with a friend the other day and she offered these words of wisdom.

Your life is like a tree............some people are like leaves on the tree. If the wind blows they blow off.  Some are branches....you put a little weight on them they fall off and break.  But some are roots..........and they are gonna be there.
Those roots go deep.  And if you cut the top of the tree off,  it will still grow, because it has got roots, its grounded.  New branches and leaves come and go... look for what roots.   Water the roots.


Understand the importance of a good root system. Without it nothing grows.
You've gotta till that dirt, and fertilize it, and water it, and watch it grow.

  6. That's a wonderful verse, I feel I have a special connection to trees. I have a favorite oak tree I talk to, it seems so alive. Some trees have been here for so long, and many out live us.

    thank you for sharing
