YOU
ARE SO BEAUTIFUL
Do
not weep for broken logs
For
those that are split apart
For
knuckled twigs
Or
that which is bent.
Is
any wood straight
Without
imperfection?
Honor
that which makes you different.
A
perfect log will roll off the fire.
You,
though, are steadfast,
And
cherished.

Perfect. Yes. I use trees to talk about how we are how we're suppose to be as well. How trees grow this way and that way - all these weird ways, but if we really look than we can see why; we can see they grew towards the sun, around this object, away from those, no water over here (etc.). They grow in every unique way for very good reasons. The same goes for humans!! We adapt, we re-adapt, we all have things we eventually must un-adapt from, but adaptation is exactly how we should be doing - nothing at all wrong with us for adapting to be any certain way - it's necessary that we did!
