In time we all wither away,
but our roots here to stay.

The experiences we hold
never wither
as we grow old.

Remember
where you come from.
Your roots.

Through the Winds of change
our knowledge and wisdom grows.

Respect the elder branches
and follow their teachings.
They had faced
a thousand storms
but with their courage,
the family tree
is able to withstand
and bloom.

Ageing gracefully with time,
and growing wise
with experience
is the ultimate
law of nature.

Wisdom comes with growth,
rooted and grounded
from each phase of life.

Wisdom and knowledge
is passed down
through the family tree.
Follow your roots

A Tree holds
the wisdom of the ages.
A testimony
to the ancient laws of life.

To grow and develop;
that is the path
to our transformation.

Tree of life,
bending with the storms
but rooted deeply
to withstand.

Just like the tree,
we age,
wither,
and die.
So enjoy your colorful days,
before they turn grey.

To put your face
constantly into the wind,
you must have deep roots.

Where the roots
of wisdom are strong,
no strongness of wind
can wipe it away.

Son, father and grandfather
are standing together
firmly and seeing
every up and down bravely.

You become
more wrinkled
when you face a storm.
And only
your resistance
to negativity
will cause
the perseverance
that make you
survive the Storm!

The changing faces
of the everchanging nature,
make us realize,
that nothing is permanent,
youth,
middle and old age,
are all as transient
as our problems.

As a tree bends
to the call of the wind
so does nature
on the wiles of youth:
ever-changing.

The storms we face
as we grow up
blew away the leaves
of our existence
but develop new branches
which hold
infinite knowledge about life.

Through ages in and out
gaze it beholds:
a look that confronts
depot of wisdom and vice

No winds of change
can uproot
what is planted
with strength and courage.

The tides of time
increase the branches
of wisdom.

Overtime,
Growth only makes you
stronger.

Maturity has more
quintessential ripped branches
than the superfluous greenery
of young minds.
