provided shelter, food and medicine and even clothing. They also shaped people's spiritual horizons. Trees
expressed the grandeur and mystery of life, as they moved through the cycle of seasons, from life to death
and back to life again. Trees were the largest living things around humans and they knew that some trees
had been standing on the same spot in their parent's and grandparents' time, and would continue to stand
long after they were gone. No wonder these trees became symbols of strength, fruitfulness, and
everlasting life.
