Death Brings New Life

Image
This is the story of a tree. A tree rooted in-front of my office There's nothing extraordinary or outstanding about this tree except...for whatever reason, this tree was cut down to a stump. Maggot food. Dead as far as all were concerned.
Months later, this cut down, maggot eaten, dried up tree has sprouted new branches with healthy green leaves.

Why?
Is it so much easier to live a lie?

Wouldn't it be nice to just be able to be yourself, not having to lie to yourself each and every day? The "living a lie" syndrome has got to be cured. It's time for all of us to live free. To be honest to ourselves. To be able to look in the mirror each day and recognize the person who looks back.
