“Courage
is not having the strength to go on. It is going on when you don’t have the
strength.”
I
spotted these trees at Marine drive, Mumbai - while I walked along with my friend
admiring the place. I was impressed at this tree standing strong, so much of brokenness
on one side, well protected at the main road and facing the sea silently witnessing
city life.
Sometimes
certain situations demands us to stand like this tree; being open to the fact
that we too are broken in different ways,
and it’s the courage that enables us to silently witness and stay calm knowing
well that “this too shall pass”….

DeleteIt must have deep roots, maybe even reaching to those other trees in the background. I'm imagining them holding on to each other. I've read about that.
