The Bookie's Nook

A symbol of solitary, strength, and life

But wait, solidarity?

Sure, if the tree is standing alone and not in a forest

I say nay, the tree isn't self sustaining so it's not solitary

But if we think as the tree as a giving tree, always giving and giving they don't have any support or rely on anyone since they are a single tree

True, but there are many parts that make up a tree
Its' roots, the trunk, the branches, the leaves, and even seeds

Your roots, are your foundation. Your morals, beliefs, and your desires. It all is founded in your roots.

The trunk is your heart, many people will touch it, but only a few will leave their mark, for better or for worse.

Now as for branches, you can imagine them as relationships with people. People will reach out to grab a branch and just how strong those branches are, is totally up to you.

People will come and go, breaking off branches, but remember new ones will grow.

And the branches that remain the longest end up being the foundation for other branches, and will stay with you forever.

The leaves and seeds we shall call your personality, the colors, shape, and size all represent who you are and attracts the people to you. But those who really care will come and not just stare at the leaves, they will come for one of the branches.

Still sounds like a solitary tree to me...

Well, what helps a tree grow?
That "solitary" tree relies on the sun and the rain to grow.

So even if you call yourself a solitary tree, what will be your sun and what will be your rain. You will need to find the right balance of each or else too much of one and too little of the other will cause you to wither.

Who will you rely on for your sun and who will you rely on for your rain?
