I love trees! When I lived in NYC, Central Park was such a comforting place surrounded by them. Living in Franklin, TN we’re surrounded by beautiful trees but lately I cry when they cut so many down for more buildings… reminds me of the Lorax
When watching LOTR and the trees go to battle it wrecked me, gave me a whole different perspective on life…
Thanks for your comment, Stephanie. I know exactly what you mean! It's amazing as well how you often don't notice something until it's taken away, or just an absence of that thing. It's only in recent years I've noticed how comforted and calmer I feel when living somewhere surrounded by trees, and how much I need nature around me. It must be terrible witnessing all those trees being removed from your area.
Also, I somehow never saw that part of LOTR with the trees so I'll have to dig it up.

That was hilarious, Michael. I will be very careful to avoid politics with olive trees. And probably weeping willows altogether.
BTW, I can confirm how dangerous gum trees are. I had this experience while canyoning in the Blue Mountains about a month ago:

Thanks, Michael!
Also..wow! There you go hey. A bit terrifying when you see it right in front of you.
Very creative - well done! This was quite fun to read.
Thanks very much, Renee! I appreciate it.
I’ve obviously been bringing up the wrong topics in my conversations with trees, Michael. Thanks for the therapy!
You’re very welcome, M&S. Hope you have some good chats!

Ooh didn’t know that reference. I’ll give it a play on Spotify.
Oh, I love this.
Thanks so much, Sara!
