A tree

Trees are one of the most phenomenal creations of God. A tree stands for strength, shade, kindness, respect, humility, warmth, and peace. Have you ever looked at a tree for a long time? I have.

During my college years, I was staying in a hostel with my friends on the second floor. There was a rain tree that literally grew into the corridor in front of my room. The richness of the tree lay in the dense branches with fresh leaves and flowers. When you looked at it from the top floor, you could see its spread of dense branches. When you saw it from near, you could feel the patience. 

The leaves fold in the evening and wake up early in the morning. The flowers of the tree are like thin pink brushes with tiny yellow tips at the top. They are so soft and tender for this gigantic tree. During the rainy season, the leaves fold and enjoy the drops.  


You can learn many things from trees. They show kindness to those who need shade. They show strength in the heavy rain. They give hope and energy when you stand under them  in the hot sun. They do not have an expectation from anyone, but they  help us in many ways. Love you, trees. J
