Tree of Sorrows
When we feel down, we all have a place we go to—some place we feel comfortable and safe. From our point of view, it’s comforting and familiar. We can control what happens here. For others, it may be foreboding. They will judge it based on their perceptions and, most of the time, will not understand it. That place is not theirs—it’s ours. It’s free of judgment and ridicule. It’s our safe place and the only place to be ourselves.
