Nature has a wisdom to it that can teach us so much- if we pay attention.
The aspen tree is the perfect example. Aspens are unique in that a forest of trees can actually be one tree.
Just like the aspen tree, we are all connected to one another at the source of our being. We are all a part of something so much greater than our individual selves. We are connected by our roots. Imagine a world where we all acted like aspen trees….
There is a peace in knowing we are not alone. Peace in knowing that even when the winds of life are cold and blowing hard, all we need to do is turn our leaves and allow the colony- our community- to shoulder the burden with us, for we are all connected.
