I was with my friend , the tree, this evening. I said – I wish I were a tree , just like you.
My friend asked why so? You are good as it is!
I said – no I want to be exactly like you. Same qualities ,many things same… I feel I would be much closer to you that way and hence with divinity.
My friend smiled – You are being silly ! Outer covering does not matter and having my genes are karmas! But what I am from inside, what I think and what I believe in , you can be like that !
Outer thing is perishable !
I said – yes ! I know ! That’s why I want to be one , a Xerox copy of yours from inside, such that you are always with me! That’s why I thought if I were a little tree of yours , I would be like you !
My friend said – being outwardly like me has no importance! It’s what on the inside that matters! You don’t come to me because of my outer structure , how so ever ,what so ever it is! But it’s my soul that’s un layered that brings you here ! You and I are same dear …. Really !
The difference is that I can see that and you cannot !
My friend lowered down its branch and gave me a loving hug and said , we are One ! Look in your heart … I am there … And see in my heart .. You are there !
I smiled .. And agreed.. Yes !thats true !
