The Tree of Life

           The relationship between humans and nature is an ongoing partnership dating back to the beginning of human civilization. Since nature and humans correlate so well, sometimes you can find similar characteristics between the two. I have chosen this relationship to explain what object best relates to me. The tree and I have a perfect correlation.

            The tree is a valuable component to the circle of life. It is a permanent and temporary home for many animals. It is a source of food for animals and humans. The tree also provides shade from sun rays. In my eyes, trees and I have more in common than great height and long branches.  I am also a valuable component in the circle of someone’s life. I believe that God has placed me the lives of certain individuals and they were placed in my life for the same reason. When it comes to relationships, my ex girlfriends have had a temporary home in my heart. I have not yet found a woman to live there permanently, but I am always open to the right buyer. I cannot produce food but I can produce words of knowledge for those who are willing to listen. Due to my protective nature, I believe that I can provide shade from life’s sun rays. I try to protect my love ones from danger when they’re in my presence.

            In conclusion, the tree and I not only had a physical relationship but a spiritual one as well. I am someone’s tree and I am happy to be that tree. It brings me joy to bring comfort and security to those whom pass my way. I have accepted my role in the circle of life and hope I can continue to be the tree God wants me to be. Whether I am in real life or online, I like to keep my personal life private. I am more verbally cautious online than I am in real life.

  1. Brandon -- this is downright poetic. Next: think about the rest of the assignment: "Discuss who you are on line and compare and contrast your online persona with your "real life" persona." What do you think?
