Description: So, unfortunately, I don’t know what species of tree this is, but it’s fairly large with thick roots that travel deep and has tiny, delicate yellow flowers that I immediately had a sense would bring cheerful, happy energy as a spell ingredient if used for magic or potion-making.
Experiences: I met this tree in an interesting way. I was so upset and in an absolutely horrible mood, while walking through the playground next to my house, I wasn’t sure what to do with all my negativity and stress. This tree saw me like this and called me over to it, allowing me to put my hand on its trunk and simply let my negative emotions flow out into it. I’ve never encountered a tree this kind and generous to a human stranger before - every tree has a different personality and I’ve noticed that they are generally somewhat more wary of strangers and not interested in favors without some kind of relationship well-established first. Clearly, this tree was a good Samaritan with a kind heart and empathy for others. At first, I wasn’t sure if what I was doing was appropriate, but the tree reassured me that it was okay - without asking for anything in exchange as I’d usually expect.
About a week later as I passed through the park, I went over to my hero and gave it some better-feeling energy from myself as a thank you for the pick me up. The tree was fine with this, and I realized while this was happening that this tree was the biggest in the park and clearly the leader or head tree of the area. I am so lucky to be living right next door to such a kind and caring leader tree. I hope to continue growing this relationship and learn a thing or two from it.
Perhaps bearing those cheerful yellow flowers and living for so long by a park with a playground constantly inhabited by happy children and families, this tree truly understands the power of giving, patience, and random acts of kindness.
