When the grief and the pain start to overwhelm me, my Soul Strolls these days, take me to the trees………where in the past, I was comforted by the song of the sea, I now find refuge sitting amongst the ‘old ones’.
Sitting beneath this beautiful Oak Tree, I found some quietude…I found some much needed peace….and a little bit of my voice.
Here I sit.
Under this big Oak Tree.
I feel her strength ,
I ‘hear’ her wisdom
Whispered in the wind.
She’s telling me
“You Are Strong”
Her leaves, they dance.
I rise,
And I dance too.
With each sway,
I feel lighter.
With each turn
More grounded.
I have found my new home.
Amongst the trees…..

What a lovely way to move through grief. I love how you felt both lighter and more grounded through dancing with the trees. Beautiful post! 🙂
Just beautiful, Linda. Have you moved in yet ?

I think you’ve already learned the greatest lesson of the tree. You’ve learned that you survive best when you”re strong enough to bend. Then you won’t break. You’ve done an amazing job, girlfriend.
Again, thank you. I’ve had those want-to-break moments, and I’m sure I will again from time to time, but I can’t and won’t..it’s not the way we roll ….
If you want your own oak tree like this one day, I have a post on my blog showing how to start one from seed which you might like: http://wp.me/p8wGFJ-lq
Thank you so much..I’m blessed to have a big old oak on the property I recently purchased and moved to..actually the tree was one of the reasons I bought the place..turns out he’s over 600 years old 💚
Wow! You’re so lucky! You should consider growing your own truffles underneath the tree!
