What Nature Can Do

           Nature is one of those things one can’t stop from being itself. Humans can prevent the outcome, but cannot stop the income of what it offers. Today it was a bit darker than usual, and it was barely six o’clock, so I decided to stop by and record my observations from the peach tree. It had a very drastic look of October to it. Like if someone lighted a torch to the tree and burned only the leaves off of it. I saw them dead and smashed in the ground. It got me thinking of nature, how cruel it could be to the livings things around us?
            It was one of those days when one feels bummed out, and just see the tree it got me in a devastating rage. My mind was just thinking of how one just lives, grows, and then dies in a short amount of time. That’s life right? But then I remember what my grandpa used to say “live life to your potential because you only have one life and no more”. So from now on I’m going to try to do what my grandpa says live my life to my potential. Not by saying that I am going to sky dive from a building, or do any of that crazy stuff, but just enjoy every single little second with my family and friends. Before nature comes and takes everything away like this peach tree I saw today. 

This is how the peach tree was today, and how it was about a month ago. Anyone can really see the difference on how nature impact's the tree in the fall. Just by looking at all the leaves in the ground it makes me very mournful of natures presence.

The Evening I Passed By

The Evening I Passed By

          The evening I passed by I was going to the store called Costco which is three to four blocks away from where the peach tree is. When I pass by the owner of the peach tree was watering her tree, i said "hi" and she smiled back. I looked at the hose and saw water coming out with such force that one could never imagine a tree leave could withstand. It got me thinking of the phrase "little things mater" due to the fact that not only was that leave holding on strong, but it holds on too make something big out of something small. The leaves doesn't just make the peach tree look beautiful, it natures,and feeds the tree again to make something big out of something small. This taught me a lesson that I would never have thought a plain old peach tree could teach me. But out of this comes something bigger.

The Evening Peach Tree

        Today October 3, 2014 I went to go see the peach tree that is located on the corner outside my school. As you might know October is really close to November which makes the leaves of the tree turn yellow, and peaches fall. The smell of ripen peach gets to you when one passes by. I usually pass by around 6:30 p.m. when the sun is touching the peach and it disperses much more quickly and hard. This is what is happening with the peach tree today.
