the little things in life
Wednesday, May 6, 2009
Hi Hi guys!!
On this spot where my own shadow was casted...once stood a tall tree about 8m in height!
Well, but as you can see, it's been leveled.
I only manage to find the remnants of the tree which was removed!! HOW SAD!!!?? Oh...my beloved tree!!!
So, what's the lesson learnt?
*Balance is the key to life* (what an old saying...but totally real)
After much analysis, i think i can safely conclude that the tree split due to strong wind. It was the first tree in a entire row of trees, to be exposed to wind. It probably absorbed most of the wind's impact.
But the failing point was this: it was too heavy on the other side
When a tree is not balance in the distribution of it's weight, it'll have higher tendency to fail. So regular pruning must be done to ensure even weight distribution.
Sometimes, God needs to 'prune', 'cut', or 'remove' certain things in our life, which may be weighing us down, stopping us from progressing. It's painful...but necessary, so that we can walk right, walk in proper balance.
If God does not remove some of these things in our life, one day we'll come to a point of failure.
God is good,; He knows what He is doing in our lives.
So, let's allow God to deal with us, help us live a balance life. Yes??
Yeah man!! Watch out for my next post!!

Long time since i last posted! Firstly, thanks for all the gifts and wishes you guys given me on my birthday. I'm really glad to be part of your lives. From the bottom of my heart, i appreciate all the little things you guys did, as a group and as individuals. THANKS!!! =)
Talking about little things, just reminded me about something which happened yesterday (yes, on my birthday itself)....this tree in my park split into two!!! The big branch snapped for some reason...by the way...it's longer than a lorry. =) Almost hit a house!!!
So as a result, i decided to remove the entire tree, for simple reason- safety. Now that half the tree was gone, the tree is not balance anymore. It'll run the risk of being uprooted during storg winds, as one side is heavier.
