Tree Talks 6 - 10 6. Nature. Unedited TV. You can watch hours and hours of dancing, depthless pixels. How long since you watched the real thing? 7. The illusion of discontinuity– between us and them and it. Re-connect. The only thing you have control over is your point of attention. Move it habitually to a nearby tree if you really seek health. Otherwise, learn to enjoy your pointless tantrum and stop complaining, please. You’re disturbing my tree talk. 8. Our quiet, green friends. We are so lucky they share the planet with us. 9. Think of a tree. Only think of it. Don't worry about visualizing it. Just think of one specific tree. They speak, you know, but oh so softly, oh so leisurely. Oh so patiently. They’re waiting for you. 10. Those burdened ones, they are donkeys who see big loads and who believe big means heavy. So for them, the loads are heavy, and as years pass, their backs sag, their faces are etched deep with care and exhaustion. Truly, they hoard their share of the countless burdens which pass onto and off of their backs, and thus are metaphysical Republicans all, cherishing the gold that is dross.
