The Tree-logy of Life
Once upon a time there lived a
beautiful tree in a very large green field on a farm. Its the biggest tree that
grow the most beautiful flower and mos delicious fruit. On spring the tree
bloom some beautiful flowers that attract people to come visit the tree and
play around. One day, a girl and her mom came to the land where the tree live.
Mesmerized by the beauty of the flower, the girl asked her mom to pick her some
of the flowers.
All parts of the tree can talk to
each other but human can not hear them. They start conversation when they saw
humans came there. A flower said “ they must come here to see my beauty, im the
most prettiest flower here” then another flower also said the same words that
praised their own beauty. “We are the most important part of this tree, without
us people wont come here to see our beauty also they can not eat the fruit that
we produce”. Then the leave also raise their voices “you cannot grow your
beauty without us, we are the factory of food and its us who provide human with
delicious fruit”
The trunk of the tree listen to
them and he also said “Don't forget that you all live with my big body and
support, Its me who make us can grow high". For some minutes they keep debating
to each other. Until the mother of the girl pick up some flowers from the
lowest branch of the tree and give it to her kid. The girl was very happy and
she said “Mom i wanna be pretty like this flower” then mom said “really?” then
they both left that place.
Listening to what the girl have
said, the flowers feel proud and they keep praising themselves. Later, night
came and the sky turn into dark and thunder start to burn the sky. There was
storm coming on that night. A very strong wind blew up all the leave and
flowers. Now after the storm end, there just only the trunk left on the tree.
In the morning the sun rises and
the sky smile brightly once again. A man came to the land and cut off the trunk
of the tree. Nothing left there but something left there and they feel sad.
They hide inside the ground. No one see them. They are the ones who keep
working at day and night. They keep supporting the tree in the silent and even
without any voice. When the tree grow high with the glory on where it stands on
after the storm came. They are the roots, who keep silent and humble even when
their hard work resulting for pretty flowers and green leaves. They keep hiding
in ground and remain silent and do not search for praise nor feel jelous for
others, because they know they can only work with the help of the sun and the
mercy of the rain. Roots are the main part of tree that left after all parts of
it has been broken. More over after all hard night and terrify storm they will
keep working and start new life with a hope that they can grow the trunk,
leaves, and flower once again.
We can learn most of lesson from
nature and apply them in our life
have a nice day all
