Hehe I love that too! I did a short talk one day on how trees speak to us. I was a lawyer at the time and thought I might get lynched LOL, but I had others come up to me afterward and say Me too! Me too! ♥️
Oh my goodness, this is my spark today, and that's saying a lot because I've had an amazing day after my weekend of yin yoga training. This post speaks to me. I love all of my trees, but I've never thought to make one a specific friend. We have so many trees on our property, but it sounds delightful to make one of them my friend. Perhaps he can speak for the others. And interesting that I've already decided it's a he. I'll keep you posted. Thank you Gillian!
Hugging a tree is the weirdest yet most comforting thing a human can do. To feel the tree creaking and moving ever so slightly in the breeze, to feel that it's something that's living and participating (rather importantly) in keeping me alive.
We live near a forest, so I have quite a number of tree friends. I love standing next to the big ones, resting against the fallen ones, and breathing in their wisdom, while watching the birds flutter amongst the leaves.
I moved states and I really miss my favourite tree. So many memories of picnics in the shade and my kids laughing as they climb so high through the branches. Yes it was my friend. I also love flowers, they make me feel so happy.
I am a tree hugger. ❤️
Yay! Wonderful to be in such good company!
Same, I can't resist the ones that lose their bark and are smooth. They are my favourite to hug.
I absolutely love talking to the trees I pass on my morning walk. They know me quite well by now 😃
Delightful Virginia! I love that I can post something like this and you all come back with, me too! Me too!

Lovely. 💛🏕️
Thank you! xo
i have many special trees, but not a special tree friend, i will be on the lookout for that special friend now,
i was very moved by your story of your tree friend, surprisingly so
I love this! A tree must be the most patient friend one could wish for. I’ll look out for one too when I go for a walk.

Tree friends everywhere. We need to shelter them more... they're ever giving and tenderly and tenaciously just being....
