Nature talks

Did you know that there was a word for the sound you hear when the wind meets a tree?

Why is there wind? The sun heats the earth's surface unevenly, creating areas of high and low pressure. Air always moves from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure, thereby generating wind. 

Do you ever stop and listen to wind and trees interacting? It's not all one sound. Sometimes it is like hearing a conversation and other times it is like a symphony is playing. If you listen closely enough you can hear nature talking. And sometimes when it is quiet enough you have nothing to hear except your own thoughts. 

The next time the wind in a tree captures your attention, go ahead and give the tree a hug, regardless of where it is. You heard its conversation and your acknowledgment of that will do you a world of good. <3
