I wish my parents had of planted a tree the day I was born
I think it would’ve been quite beautiful to watch it grow alongside me and know it's existence was pegged to my own. And when I'm feeling sad, I could climb my tree and reflect on my life.
I'd start at the trunk and remember my childhood, I'd slowly climb the branches, each one representing the different choices i've made throughout my life before finally reaching the summit of my tree.
And as I looked out across the ground I'd realise how far I've come in my life and how far i've grown...just like my precious tree.
