I could touch the top of these trees when I moved into my house 24 years ago.

About lifelessons

My blog, which started out to be about overcoming grief, quickly grew into a blog about celebrating life. I post daily: poems, photographs, essays or stories. I've lived in countries all around the globe but have finally come to rest in Mexico, where I've lived since 2001. My books may be found on Amazon in Kindle and print format, my art in local Ajijic galleries. Hope to see you at my blog.

    When we moved here 31 years ago, our predecessors had planted a few trees which were still only about 3-4 feet tall. Within a year, we had moved them from the middle of the garden to the far end. Since then, the cherry tree had to be cut down because it got too big – blocking the light, and would have caused too much damage if it had fallen. The two birch trees are now thriving without the competition from the cherry. The field maple is now literally the cornerstone of the garden, taller than the birches at around 50ft and home to lots of birds and invertebrates. Fortunately it shouldn’t get any bigger. 100ft would be just too big!
