Peace Part 7
August 31, 2025
When I was a little boy, I loved to climb trees. The higher I climbed, the better it was.
The higher in the tree I climbed, the more limber were its branches, and the more of a “ride” I could get. Not only could I see my rooftop, but I also spied all the neighbors’ roofs and yards. Up there, swaying in the tree, I was one with its branches and moved with the limbs in concert with the wind.
