What I learned from the Pines

Teachings from the Pines…

Strength without being rigid:

The trunks of the trees are perfectly still while the treetops with branches sway gently with the wind and make beautiful music.

Letting go:

While growing tall, they release the lowest branches that naturally die and fall away while keeping a strong trunk to flow nutrients and energy from the sun to the earth and from the earth to the sun. The roots stop feeding the lowest branches and continue to feed the top ones.
