It came in clear view not to long ago that a tree is a pretty significant living thing. With out it we could not live and so with a lot of other life forms. It gives us air to breathe, shade from the sun, food for our belly, wood for our homes and fire. With out this think of how much our lives would change perhaps we may even look different from adaptation of not having them around.
Also a tree is very significant in religious beliefs. The tree in the Garden of Eden which set us away from God. Siddhartha Guantanamo one of the most famous and recognized of all the Buddhists became enlightened under a tree which he meditated under for over twenty years. In the Islam religion they recognize trees as a necessity for us to live and prohibit cutting them down. With all this being said we should take a second to step back and realize how important it is to recognize the things around us and not take it for granted. Everything as simple as a tree plays a key role in our survival. I'm not a "Green Freak" but I think we should all plant at least one tree in the ground during our lifetime.
