For Ailsa I want to send some of my favourite trees – at least photos taken of them. So travelling means in Sweden this time. Starting with their helping us with mindfulness – my mother and my two dogs under the great beech tree in our forest, Spring 2011.

Trees – we cannot live without them. There are many reasons to why I love trees, and here are only some of them. I hope you agree with me – they are as wonderful as they are essential. I love them…

For being the constant joy for my children every summer

For living on despite disasters

For the mystery of light and shade

For showing the beauty of ageing
