RE: On “Owning” Trees

in #nature7 years ago

What compares to a tree???? I wish I knew EVERYTHING about them. Though I realize there is no 'need'....ony that I love them as you have expressed so beautifully. Do you ever dream about trees? i haven't until recently, and now I even get to spend time with them in dreamworld. IT is truly heaven.....You might like the documentary I viewed last night called Tale of A Forest.....(if there is 'TV' in your world)...if not, you always have the lap of the glorious tree which is co-owned by You & Tree. xox

<3 <3 <3 i love your perspective. how can i watch this documentary? i'll see if i can "bootleg" it on my computer as it sounds interesting (and recommended by you..).. I do not yet dream of trees, but they fill many of my waking hours.

in college i had a depressive period and trees were truly my best friends and allies. who will speak for the trees?- the lorax..

it is up to us <3

and yes, so much to know. the more i learn about forests and how each part inter-acts, the more i realize i am only a small part of our Being here XO

ooooh, then you must see if you can find it on your computer! Try just googling the name Tale of A Forest. I watched it on the Sundance Channel, but I bet it's out there because it was filmed around 2013. Let me know if you track it down...I'll keep looking.

YES....I still rely on snuggling closely with BARK, but seriously, I love to rest into them, stand with them, SMELL them, photograph them, and speak with them. When I found out there was going to be a tree removal on my street, I spent the 3 days before that letting the tree know what was going to be happening....their wisdom is so profound I felt the 'warning' would be helpful. I had to leave that day....it's just too hard. But I know to offer it to Spirit and all will be well....

How blessed that you can 'own' this wonderful tree. and isn't it such a funny feeling, knowing how small we are, and yet how large? ;) XO

PS---if you go to the post I made from yesterday, the first image (Source) is a link about the doc...you can see a trailer...and maybe a source for watching. I'm excited!

Thank you! I will let you know if I track it down easily :)

love this and love that you made such a great connection with the tree, communicating with it before it was cut down.. i know i grieve over the large scale loss of trees on our planet. gah! let's think, humans!

and yes, we don't truly own it at all! what a funny way of looking at it. but, very happy to own it in order to be able to protect <3
