Majestic Tree

A beautiful majestic tree bearing its bark scars and non the worse for them.

How small Vincent seems beside the giant tree.

From posting of December 9, 2022 —

A tree from this past summer with multiple burls caught my eye. Interestingly, burls are formed as a result of stress to the tree area. It could be insect, injury, a multiple of reasons. They are natures way of healing the area and protecting the tree. Not much different from a scar on us, left behind as proof that we survived.

Wear scars as a badge of honor and stand tall as a tree.
