#3 Trees are like Humans – Memory Palace of Tree Stories
This is #3 of the Memory Palace of Trees stories on video, many thanks to educator Jenny Hong for her tree story.
*********************
Jenny’s words:
Trees are like Humans,
They grow differently according to different places and different climate.
When every spring comes ,it doesn’t matter if there is Covid 19 or not ,
they all put on their new leaves and flowers as well.
I especially like this kind of old tree, very old, like this one ,
I assume is over 100 years old.
And also those trees that are growing against the wall
outside Lama temple, they never complain.
They never push away anyone who seeks for shelter.
Just like our family, no matter how weary you are, how upset you are,
They always welcome you home warmly with their open arms.
So, all the trees have got their character too,
Just like us!
