Humans are often compared to many things: A rock, an island, a bump on a log. . . the list is endless. Yet we are rarely compared to that which we have the most in common with – a tree.

Your roots are your history. They cannot be seen, yet they give you the basis for your life.

Your trunk and foliage show your appearance on a physical level.

Your fruit, nuts or seeds are your spiritual legacy. This is what you give to the world, be it nourishment, shelter, or the ability to bring others into a new and better life.

You are a tree. Be fruitful, and continue to produce good results for the rest of the forest.
