A tree didn’t learn to stand tall overnight. It just did. And thus over time wisdom was born from a perseverance that stood tall against all that of which life would throw against it.

A tree doesn’t have to try harder to grow wiser. It just does. To grow tall in wisdom is to stand tall in perseverance.

If you’re facing the storm right now, know this… You’re stronger than you think. This too shall pass and in its wake will be a forest of a thousand trees planted deep within your future’s breath. You matter.
