"Advice From a Tree:
Stand Tall and Proud,
Sink your roots deeply into the Earth, Be content with your natural beauty, drink plenty of water, and remember your roots." --Ilan Shamir
How Do I Love Trees? Let Me Count the Ways...
Trees are interwoven into our existence in so many ways. They give us air to breathe, shade from sun, beautiful colors in the autumn, timber to build our homes, food to eat, paper to write on, and so much more. In this ode to our wooded friends,the team at Gratefulness.org have compiled a series of quotes, stories, poems, and photographs that delve deeper into our connection to trees. Going beyond the practical gifts they afford us, these reflections speak to the spiritual connection that has long existed between humans and trees.
BE THE CHANGE
Find a way to say thank you for all you love about trees. Volunteer at a local arboretum, donate to a national park, plant a tree in your own backyard, or add your own photographs, poetry, or thoughts on how trees have impacted your life.
