I Love Forests and Trees

Forests and trees are so important to the planet and to our collective spiritual psyche. It pains me when I see them being cut down and destroyed. I grew up in a forest. We moved away when I was ten years old and I missed it so much...

I'm sure that I am not alone in the feeling when I say I feel at peace when I am surrounded by nature. The vibrant greens, the browns and all the contrasting colors make me feel at ease. It is such a beautiful sight to see, to be...

                                             I  found a great tree to hang out in a few weeks ago but my daughter said I shouldn't try and that I would break my neck. So, of course, I...

Every time I step into a forest or even just a patch of trees I feel like I've stepped into a whole other world. I can just feel the pure energy of the trees pulsing all around and it makes me smile. I could just fall asleep to the...

I don't deal well with winter, bad weather or too blasted cold to go outside to enjoy nature. Today, for the first of January, it was a decent day. The temp was around 55 and a big blue sky above, with one bright ball of light, shining...

In 1903 Ireland had just 1.5% forest cover today it is about 10%. Much of this forest is plantations of conifers from the North West of America. About 1% of this cover is native wild wood, this is the stuff that nature intended to grow...

She lays on a bed of fallen leaves,
Embarking on her journey of her love of the trees,
Basking under its shade and protection,
She rests with comfort and peace,
And is in awe of the provisions of...

We were driving to this wonderfully quaint little mountain town in northwest Arkansas, and just before getting into the town is a small antique shop with an incredible view that goes for miles. We had enjoyed some good herb during the...

I am not much on Winter. I do love my forest, my trees to be green. But no matter, I can enjoy, love my woods... forest of trees anytime of the year.

Yesterday I had some time on my hands... no place I had to go at any time. *smile*

Stopped to take a break this afternoon. Sat in the cab of my truck and took a long drink of Gatorade. The fertilizer pump was humming and the sprinklers chirped . . . Looking around . . . 20+' Pine trees, tall, straight and healthy...

I think that I shall never see

A poem lovely as a tree.

A tree whose hungry mouth is prest

Against the earth's sweet flowing breast;

A tree that looks at God all day,

A tree that may...

Last year I was really depressed. I had decided that I didn't want to live anymore and I was going to commit suicide. I went through a lot of mental, emotional, and physical pain in 2007 and didn't want to deal with it anymore.

Someone had nailed two by fours to the trunk and it was easy to access what would otherwise have been an impossible climb for me. At first I would go there because it reminded me of my home in West Virginia, where my best friend had...
