A couple of years ago, a way bigger tree than that (I owe you the pic, soon will post it) which still is between my parents and neighbors house, started to fall to one side due to a rain season. The tree broke almost the upper side of the wall that was actually kind of supporting the tree, and if it weren't for that wall, maybe our car and my brothers bedroom would have been crushed by the weight of that disaster. The bigger problem was that not the mayor's office|municipal authorithies neither the biggest company in my entire country did anything about it. Me and my parents, also my neighbors tried to reach out, and nobody gave us any help. We managed to find two guys who risking their lives chopped off several big branches, but the main trunk and alive tree is still there. The truth is that we don't have enough resources, neither a company over here that does that kind of work. It remains a danger for the community, and not even a firemen department is active to assist us with that. The broken wall is also still there, and I'm pretty sure that is somehow holding a part of the tree's weight. At least it was a way for us as neighbors to get together, and even though we haven't dealt with the entire situation, I know that this is something that we as a community, society and as families|friends need to work on, to be better and to find our purpose and ways to help and evolve as a town or even an entire country!

I know this may seem a way for me to talk about my situation instead of yours, but only by this story of yours is that I can talk about me. Sharing this experience that you went through, and so beatifully well put is something that I can relate to, and more than that, I think it's a damn good story and overall experience that you manage to tell us in your words and thoughts. I couldn't be more sympathetic and I wish for you to find an even bigger way to make better this opportunity. To show how nature can be transformed in many ways, and the thrill of doing it doesn't translate into just growing food or plants. Sometimes by doing that we don't get the best results, end up with dead plants or rotten seeds, etc. But the truth is that we are trying to make things better.

To have this kind of day is definitely a breath of fresh air, sharing with family and neighbors, and showing suport even at something that we don't neccesarily agree on. It proves that we can grow as well, and we can learn to make a better world! Again, thank you for sharing this. It's a great memory for you to treasure, and as little it may seem, your family and people around you arent that small at all. Cheers!
