In my years of academics, agriculture has been my field but animals were my major hence plants were something a bit far from my concern, thanks to poetry which gave me desire of loving the nature as a complete circuit. Everytime when time was spent viewing the nature only one site would be the focus of that time given, today I fell in love with trees and not all about them but the sizing of trees. The trees fell into consideration weren't planted by anyone on this plot but here, they are hard and strong with beauty that cannot be resisted. In the family of trees there's unfairness, no democracy or liberation in choosing the size of your height and body weight all that, is done by other constituents such as the type of species, water validity, soil type, weather conditions one can count them till sunset but as a seed you are expected to bear the best fruits regardless of the choices given.
At this point in
time you are puzzled as to then what happen or why did it come to my mind? Back
to the sizzling concern first brought when the trees were considered
"sizes of trees". These trees are subdivided into two: sizes the tall
ones and short ones( growing under the tall ones), viewing this I felt the
pain/torture that the tall trees experience whilst the one beneath adventure
under them. The tall tree is the one that experience all the blowing wind and
reduce the velocity before it reaches the trees under, what about the heavy
rains;they reduce all that may blend the trees under them. It behaves more like
parents as per principles of nature in human kind, protecting and make as if
all things are simple while up above them they are strangled with sleepless
nights trying to resolve all the burdens of the real world.
The tall tree
never chose to be tall, its like the sun that never chose to light during the
day but it does so regardless of the clouds on the sky. Slowly tears fell down
deep in thought I found myself seeing and feeling the pain that the tree was
feeling up above but still continue to shade the one's under until they are
matured enough to be exposed to the real world. Deep in me I recovered the
reality that same it is to human, so many brothers and sisters in our beautiful
land are tall trees in their families, situations and life in general. All that
we see as the world is the hard rocky beautiful creature overcoming all sorts
of problems and never seem to fall on the knees while others adventure around
him/her. But then why are we so desperate and blinded by troubles in life-trees
never consider this as unfairness or compare themselves with the trees beneath them.
They compare themselves with the trees same size than them or taller than
their, whilst us human continue to look under and see this as unfairness,
continual comparing ourselves to other trees that adventure forgetting our position
hence we see life as a pain every day.
I utter this
words to not banish the world but to remind the brothers and sisters that feel
like life is never fair to them, deep down in you the is a rock strong person
that can defeat all this conditions that try to torture and the rewards of
doing so without a thought of unfairness is irresistible strong soul that
overcome all problems with no regard of the size(they wouldn’t happen to you if
you could not handle it-it may seem totally dark now but you are the only one
with a solution of it). Learning has been the greatest strength of all Tall
trees or the shinning sun that pass light even when clouds are striking. Don’t
worry about those that are living sweet under you and don’t blame them it’s
because of their ability is short and small (immature-not yet ready). Continue
to give life and burden no other but pursue life as if you know what will
happen tomorrow. Secret of life tall trees are less in number because not all
tree can be hard and strong to stand the torture and pain so expect no too much
role models or friends up there. All that is under you Tall tree(all the
grasses, short trees, insects and so forth) need to mature before it can be
exposed to real world and that’s why you are there to cover them."We can
all be happy in life if we knew our positions in the teams where we are playing
and what they expect from us"
