What a lovely video, it speaks volumes to me. Do we realize the important roles trees play in our lives? Now I'm not talking about the scientific data like how trees help us to breath cleaner, and how trees have a cooling effect, nor how trees increase the value of our properties. No I want to speak today on how we incorporate trees in not only our daily lives but some of our most important life events. Example, how often do you see wedding parties taking photos on the Cable Beach Strip, with beautiful trees in the back ground. I have had the good fortune of being present at many a photo shoot there. What about picnics, every one scrambles to find trees to sit under, also many persons opt to have their lunch out doors and many a car can be seen parked under trees with persons eating their lunch. So yes trees do touch our lives whether we are conscious of it or not. Trees are rooted and it is up to us to take care of them because they take such wonderful care of us. Try becoming more aware of how beautiful they are and how if you let them how wonderfully they speak to our hearts. I know I am a better person since I fell in love with them and trust me that was a radical change, going from a person who chopped them down on a whole sale level to becoming a tree hugger. I will say it it a thousand times I am a Tree Hugger and proud of it. So while it is not necessary to become a tree hugger one can appreciate them for all their lovely benefits to us. Until next time, Joy

In the old days every child use to have their navel string planted with a tree, can you imagine if we started that again, 1 tree for every child that is born. There are approximately 370,000 babies born every day worldwide. I know we could do it, don't you.

That would be a lot of trees. Whether or not we think about it we always scuffle to get the shaded area for any out door activities, but what if there was no trees, what would we do. I am planting one for my nephew first birthday tomorrow .
