I am a Tree

Self deeply rooted in the earth, forever reaching for the sky.

Slowly but steadily growing, always pushing my limits.

The sky is the limit.



Gracefully dancing, intertwined in the wind.

Growing stronger from the storm’s essential rain.

Absorbing the rays of light, letting the sun’s celestial existence enlighten me. Acting differently, fully clothed in the summer heat, while naked in the harshness of winter, and always true to my nature.



Roots growing deeper, anchoring myself to my heritage, my values, my family. Like the seed forever expanding, these are the beginnings of my being.

Tough, thick bark, like the layers of experiences and struggles, protecting my sensitive interior.

My personal history, mistakes, and achievements embedded in my core.

Branches like arms extending out, receiving the warm embrace of life that flows around me, within me.

Leaves, like hands reaching up, extending themselves to the rest of existence.



Breathing in my sustenance, everything and everyone that I hold close to me. Breathing out my essence, an essential part of my surroundings.

Rooted in my past, holding my ground in the present, forever reaching to the future.



I am a tree.
