A woodland in full color is awesome as a forest fire, in magnitude at least, but a single tree is like a dancing tongue of flame to warm the heart. There are no limits to either time or distance, except as man himself may make them. I have but to touch the wind to know these things. The ultimate wisdom which deals with beginnings, remains locked in a seed. There it lies, the simplest fact of the universe and at the same time the one which calls faith rather than reason. I have learned to use the word impossible with the greatest caution. If you would know strength and patience, welcome the company of trees. |
