Heavens, been out of the blogosphere for too long...I had begun composing this more than a month ago.
Tragedy struck this past spring...in our backyard after the year's heaviest rainfall :-( The victim: one of our apple trees.
This tree has never yielded healthy apples. We kind of saw this coming as there were major drainage issues around the tree, but I was in complete disbelief when my eyes confirmed what my siblings had shared with me about its fate.
I really feel that nature and our environment greatly parallels the human experience and so this loss had aroused some thought about the fragility of the human spirit. I mean no matter how seemingly secure, we can surely be dislodged without much...notice. The best protection from dislodgement: building deep, sustainable roots. #freelove
