The Vine Lesson

All my life I have tried to be a tree.

I wanted to stand on my own. I wanted to be tall and strong. I wanted to shelter others.

But I am not a tree. I am a vine.

I reach out toward enlightenment.

I cling to things that I love.

I grow in all directions, not just up.

I get attached to things.

I am not independent. I am interdependent.

I must embrace my vine-ness.

I cannot be a tree, you see.
