RE: A pupil of trees

in #writing6 years ago

Your wonderful poem leads us to remember that, as beings of this world, we must recover and clothe ourselves with the majestic blanket of tree values: humility, solidarity, support and wisdom rather than knowledge. We must never lose the ability to learn from everything around us: "When the pupil is ready, the master appears". The most important thing is the attitude and willingness to learn, to sharpen one's sensitivity, to ask the pertinent questions and to be astonished at apparent pettiness. In everyday life there are so many answers that go unnoticed, so many whispers, so many laments, so many truths.
