Are plants and trees truly the seat of the soul?
I just had to share this with someone…..
I was looking at my hibiscus three yesterday and I could not figure out why all the leaves were turning yellow and falling off. I’ve had this tree for almost five years and I had never seen it do that. The tree is an indoor tree so it sits in my living room.
To add to my confusion, the tree is flowering like I’ve never seen it do before. The flowers are big, beautiful and plentiful and the buds keep coming. It is quite extraordinary. Then I had a revelation. I realized that the tree was mirroring my life. I feel like my life is blossoming like it never has before. Awesome opportunities are coming my way and I feel like I am coming into my own. I feel that I am growing and flourishing just like the tree. The tree must be picking up my vibration.
I felt some sadness come over me as looked at the yellow leaves once again. Why are they turning yellow and falling off in the midst of this glorious flowering? It did not make any sense and then I had another realization. The leaves were like the falling away of old beliefs and old ways of thinking. Yes I could see it….the tree is truly a reflection of my life as it is in this moment. All of a sudden it all seemed perfect and I could accept the falling of the leaves as a beautiful sign of change….. my change.
