Roots and branches

Random quote of the day:


"Roots are the branches down in the earth. Branches are roots in the air. The roots below the earth claim no rewards for making the branches fruitful."

—Rabindranath Tagore, Stray Birds, #103 and #134

HA! I read that and thought, That sounds familiar. Makes me think of baobab trees.

Which I believe was when I used the quote. :D

Lovely illustration.

Glad you liked it. Although, the baobabs might be more interesting. :-)
