Amongst Trees
‘‘The trees have played the role of my father, best friend, and therapist, and the branches have untangled the knots within my mind, helping me to make sense of who, or, perhaps, ‘what’ I am.’’
‘‘As an adult, when I eventually became myself, I made a conscious choice to look towards Nature for the guidance that I always craved whilst I was just a sapling. From trees, I seek wisdom. Amongst forest networks, I learn the importance of community and communication between old and young. From the free-standing oak, I learn the bravery that it takes to stand alone, and I see beauty in the solitude and silence.’’
