One of my dearest friends "died" last weekend...

No it's not a cat and not a dog.
In fact it's not an animal at all...

It's a tree... Am I grassy??? :shrug:

I don't know, I even don't know if this post belongs here...

Bud I do know that the sight of this giant fallen into the surrounding fields shocked me somehow...
The storm during the last weekend here must have taken it’s tole…

Every day I go to work on my bicycle and doing so I cross a place that has become very dear to me. It has a small forest with some lakes. And some small grassy fields. The atmosphere to me has a very ancient feel. And to me in fact it is very spirited I don’t know why, maybe it’s because (as I have been told) ones there stood a house somewhere there. Or maybe it’s the magical feel of water and earth meeting or also the small scale human agricultural activity. Anyhow every day I pas by, I brief deeply, inhaling the energy, gaining some new inspiration for the coming day…

The last time when I am of work I do visit the place also, trying to get in touch with al this and trying to become Druid…

One of the major eye catchers there is this big tree in the middle of the fields (I don’t know exactly what species). But it’s posture showed a long and harsh live. He must have bin much older than me… And his spirit must have bin full with all kind of experiences and wisdoms…

With his large branches reaching for the sky’s, it seems to grasp every spirit that happens to fly throe it’s leaves… And doing so, taking them down and distributing them to his surroundings and the people there… just like what he did with the air we breathe…

Tomorrow I will go there again and visit him, but what can I do? I surely will mourn. And I will try to find out what species he was…

But what will I find there?
Is his spirit still there after a week?
And where will It be going?
What can I still do??
Can I somehow guide his spirit or help it find it’s way to a new live??
Can I turn this loss into something positive?

I guess my sentence will tell mewhat to do when I am there…….

Again maybe I am grassy I don't know.
But I wrote this sincerely…
