The Broken Branch

Herewith a brief photo essay. 



We have a lovely row of trees that flower in the spring. 




Just a few weeks ago, on my daily walk with the dog, I noticed one branch has severely broken--the right angle is the break. The buds were forming all over the tree, including on the broken branch.




Today, as I walked by the same tree, I noticed that the downed branch was in full bloom, as was the whole tree. 

So, I take heart in this sweet message from nature--a broken branch can still bloom.

    Very sweet ... I see that happen quite often in life and it is always uplifting. A nice comparison.
