My dad saw this tree by the side of the road. He told me I should take a picture of it. So yesterday I waited for the sun to be just right and garbed my camera. I think I can sympathize with this tree a lot of the time. I feel like I am being up rooted and put someplace new all the time. New soil and new surroundings. Sometimes I just want to tip over and give up. It is tempting to be superficial when you know you will be moving on soon. Deep roots hurt when they are pulled up. I don't know if I will ever have really deep roots any place. But I can't let that be an excuse to stop growing. Good thing for me and I am not actually a tree and this is only a metaphor.
