Original Art - Trees by Ingrid Sanchez
I read once that trees are considered to be the connectors between earth and sky, heaven and earth. With their roots growing deep into the earth and strong branches reaching up to the sky, it is not difficult to understand this beautiful symbolism. Who has not given a hug to a tree and felt like they are hugging back?
Somehow in the last couple of years this concept came back to me and I started to observe the seasons through the trees and not only the flowers, as I have usually done.
Lots of memories of trees linked to my childhood have become relevant lately. For instance the cypresses that we planted at my parents house and that were present in every photo of my childhood because they literally grew with my sisters and I, had to be cut down because they became too big. Needless to say I was really sad when I received the news.
