    Wonderful way of seeing what we see each moment. We (I) should encourage our minds and hearts to think like this always!

    Unlike vines, trees have generous souls.

    Made me think of Kahlo's "What the Water Gave Me" - then Pascale Petit's poetry of the same name, after Kahlo.

    Thank you for giving me a lovely contemplative moment :)
