Trees, Tree care, Safety, Inspiration, Spirituality, Personal growth, Helping the environment, Teaching, Teaching, Teaching..... Helping people re-connect with the natural world. Focus, Zen, Meditation....Wind, Water, Sunlight, Buds, Flowers, Leaves, Bark....Shadows filtering Chlorophyll laden beams of light...The coolness of transpiration...the smell of earth and dirt...Helping the natural beauty and wonder of trees interface with the suburban/urban manmade landscape..... helping people become more sensitive to the soul of the planet..... greet the ambassadors of life on Earth..... Trees........They MADE our atmosphere... they give us life. Gratitude...expressed by being able to call a tree by it's name... express some of it's properties...it's habits... it's flaws and virtues....... and using the mataphors of life in the trees to learn to inspect our own lives.... That's what I do as an arborist. Engage me in a conversation about it... there resides a wealth..a richness... a blossoming world to explore.... I'd love to share it with you! Yours in Trees, Mark
