I've been a part of this forest since 1992. Two things that stand out are the infamous dancing trees. Two trees that caught each other on the hillside during Hurricane Hugo.

I often wonder if family and friends return to the areas where a loved ones ashes were spread. If we don't return does that mean we've let them go?

If I hadn't been walking through the state park I would've missed out on seeing the six inch tall brought orange mushroom and the extremely tiny purple flower nestling up to a tree. Being inside any forest always feels like sitting with a symphony. There's always so much to see and listen to. Then the painting changes. If I return to the mushroom will it ever be the same?

Learning to love all living things is a life changer in the way of recognizing all things outside of self. A visitor decides to snuggle up for some well needed rest. Taking the time to study the spiritual connection of a wren and or any other animal teaches our inner core more about life and all it's gifts and visitors.

The mysterious world of AI technology. Hollywood keeps making sci fi stories that scare us with robots taking over the planet and its nations.

There are amazing benefits.

It was felt in my heart to share the story of this forest as if it were a friend or family member. I'm far from being the only one that has received amazing energy from this collection of trees. The other's have walked with but have done nothing with.

I fear for my forest. It's beyond my control. All that's natural could turn this blessed lay of land upside down and inside out. Which is why I spend so much time sharing the stories. No matter who you are or where you are, that tiny dot on the map that which you stand has a story. Share it...

The goal is to take what the planet is currently doing as it continuously evolves through global change and use the lessons in our own lives. To be fully aware of our own storms as they too are getting larger and larger everyday.

Science says its completely ok that my apple tree loses its leaves in the midsummer. It's conserving water and energy. Which makes me think about the fruit we provide. During moments of what he call out as being numb, lonely and without energy, are we? Or are we conserving?

Those moments you enter a sacred space. You don't have to be spiritually driven, yet you know there's that one place you reach where there'll be peace.
