A Green Tree


The ancient art of bonsai reminds us that it's the little things we do everyday that provide our lives with shape and form.

I was given this lovely little tree for my birthday and I am loving the idea of looking after it for many years. The tree is a juniper and it is already seven years old. Admittedly I don't have a good track record of taking care of plants... but I've got a good feeling about this one and hope that it will thrive under my care.

"Keep a green tree in your heart and perhaps a singing bird will come."
