See how amazingly alike people and trees are.

In a tree’s life it can undergo many dangers. One of the dangers it can undergo is the tree rotting. This is like how a person can feel “dead” on the inside, but still being able to operate on the outside, much like a tree when it is rotting. A tree can also be chopped down only to be left with a stump, although, the tree will still attempt to grow. This is much like how people can be pushed to the near end, have nothing left, but still try to recover and hang on. A tree can also go through a drought and begin to wither away slowly. This is much like how something bad can happen to people and sometimes nothing can be done to fix it so the person slowly begins to weaken, emotionally or physically. A tree can also be rooted up, which makes it almost impossible for the tree to continue to grow. People also like to be rooted and keep things generally in a routine, when this is disrupted we are not really sure what to do, much like a tree. Tree’s qualities are also very person like. Trees are very strong and can get through almost anything. People are a lot like this in the way that people can go through a lot and still survive and get through things. People can also be very strong physically as well as emotionally and, if needed, just be able to tough many things out. Trees are also very helpful because they often allow other animals, such as birds to make their homes with them. People are also very helpful and try to help each other, animals, and the environment in general most of the time. Trees are also constantly growing and changing, continually growing branches, leaves, adding layers of bark, and many other ways. This is much like how people constantly go through things in their life, learn from it, and they grow and change according to what had happened. Trees tend to adapt to their seasonal environment as well. People also tend to adapt to their environment or where they are. People like to do what others are doing and fit it, much like adapting to their environment. That is how trees, in their dangers and qualities, are very much like people.
