Little Snow Tree

"Earth teach me to forget myself as melted snow forgets its life. Earth teach me resignation as the leaves which die in the fall. Earth teach me courage as the tree which stands all alone. Earth teach me regeneration as the seed which rises in the spring." - William Alexander

A lovely photo and an interesting quote. Not sure I agree with the sentiments expressed but they're worth thinking about.

Have a great week, my friend.
