Balance: Sunlight is always needed.
Because without it,
There would be no shade.
Love: Love should be sprinkled into the soil constantly.
Let the roots lock into their places and grow to whatever size they want.
Everyone is different.
Understanding: People come in all shapes and sizes,
And so do trees.
Be understanding.
Not everything turns out the way you desire.
Acceptance: When Autumn arrives and the leaves start changing,
Be accepting.
Like children,
The leaves will go through phases.
Reassurance: When Winter comes around and it starts to lose it's color,
Tell the tree it'll be okay.
Everyone needs to hear that sometimes.
Friendship: Some days,
The tree will stand tall.
Other days,
It will wilt.
Lift it's branches from the ground.
Prop it up and keep it in it's place.
Everybody needs someone to stand by their side.
Reality: Be patient.
Maybe the tree won't grow as fast or have the color leaves you want.
Maybe you'll have to plant 100 trees,
Maybe a million.
But someday, you'll be happy you started planting.
