Description
... within a world of Nature
As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.
Henry David Thoreau

Nothing can repair that damage, wind or lightning.

The leaf bearing end of this long limb was cut by our highway maintenance crews, leaving a stub which could not contribute to the tree. Rather than growing new leaves and continuing its growth, the tree "chose" to cancel diminished contributions. I can assist with the removal of dead wood, but this 200+ year old tree has managed to take care of itself, and could survive another two hundred years. I see this and think of stem cell research, lost lizard tales and regeneration of healthy productive cells, which seems to be a path of our future.
