“Trees are the earth’s endless effort to speak to the listening heaven.”
– Rabindranath Tagore, Fireflies
i think this is one of my favorite quotes about trees. i found it a long time ago but neglected to write it down at the time. the memory of a beloved quote about trees and heaven pops into my mind occasionally, so i am finally writing it down somewhere in order to always remember it.

Have not heard that one. So perfect!!
nor i. and yes. it’s perfect.
trees are sacred to me. even since i was a child.
i do not consider “tree hugger” a negative description.
thank you for that picture and quote. xo
