About life & trees

jaishree9 · Nov 16, 2007

It's important to have roots.

In today's complex world, it pays to branch out.

Don't pine away over old flames.

If you really believe in something, don't be afraid to go out on a limb.

Be flexible so you don't break when a harsh wind blows.

Sometimes you have to shed your old bark in order to grow.

If you want to maintain accurate records, keep a log.

To be politically correct, don't wear firs.

Grow where you're planted.

It's perfectly okay to be a late bloomer.

Avoid people who would like to cut you down.

Get all spruced up when you have a hot date.

If the party gets boring, just leaf.

You can't hide your true colors as you approach the autumn of your life.

It's more important to be honest than popular.

Jaishree,

They are lovely lines, I enjoyed them a lot. And, they will not wither away like the autumn leaves from my mind, but will stay evergreen like the pines

Lots to learn from nature, right?

Dear Kamla
I really like reading your line .." they will not wither away like the autumn leaves from my mind, but will stay evergreen like the pines "..

so very artistically written and poetic too. Never would have thought of it. Thanks.
