What are your branches

What are your branches

I had a conversation about trees today and how the roots are where you come from like your family, culture, and background. The trunk is your strengths and what keeps you grounded, The the branches are your hopes for the future. The leaves are then on the branches  as important people in your life. Some fall off but regrow as different people or different relationships.

The fruits are the life lessons maybe we get through some difficult times, they weather a storm and become something when the sun comes out, also sometimes there are storms above for the challenges you have been through.

i would like to know,

Re: What are your branches

Branches never drop, only if you break them off yourself

Wow I really love your thing about trees @ArraDreaming I love trees.

A tree called Cabbage Tree Palm is a Dharawal totem

My dad was a tree (like one of his totems).

I suppose his branches were his children, one of which, is me becuase we go on and keep growing after he has left
