Glad to find you in these tormenting times. How did I find you? Internet search for an animated film I saw in '89 or '90 (last century!) while laying sick at home, The Man Who Planted Trees. Loved it so and later found the book. I am retired now. No much more for me to say these days. Thank you for writing "we could have it all". Be well always.

Aren't tormenting times such as these the best times for people to find each other? I'm glad you found me, especially while searching for a beautiful story. Your comment just introduced me to The Man Who Planted Trees. I'm watching it now in another century.

Wouldn't it be nice to plant an entire forest? I've been learning how best to plant trees and hope to scatter some seeds everywhere I go.

Thank you for reading this little newsletter and sharing this lovely comment. Your words truly made my day. Be well, and take care. 🌱

I have planted a few trees myself since moving to a little house on a small plot of land that needed shade trees. Had a lot beetle-infested pines that we let mom nature take care of it. We have a tiny forest in its place now.

I am hoping to see a few young trees mature before I leave our earth. Yes, these are the very tormenting times that brought me out of my shell to share a few lines online. Thank you for taking time out to respond. Keep planting and be healthy.
