Do you have a Happy Tree? All the trees I have seen so far has made me happy. This tree is special because it marked the start of an unexpected journey.
This is the tree that welcomed me to my new place for the first time outside my homeland. I took this picture before two years back during my first travel to London.
My daughter was just 2 years old and we were due to travel. I was excited and nervous about how things are going to be. My daughter was an amazing companion to travel with. It was one of the smoothest journey that happened to me.
For 3 months, this is what I woke up to every morning. It is such a lovely reminder of beauty around us. I was going through a lot of personal struggles back then.
If I had to list 3 things that made me feel better, I’d give it all to Black coffee, watching the skies and trees around me. They made me relax slowly. It helped me let go of many intense emotions.
I am forever thankful for receiving such a warm welcome in a new country. Now, after almost 2 years, I could call it home without second thoughts. That’s exactly how I felt moving here. This is a place to call Home!
This quote completes my thoughts in an apt way about my happy tree.
Trees are poems the earth writes upon the sky.
Khalil Gibran

It is a beautiful view. I’ve never been to Europe; I hope to visit one day, and see their trees (and birds).
It’s surely a beautiful place to visit AM. You must make a visit ☺️
How lovely to have a tree that provides an anchor, and welcomes you home, even in a new place.
Thank you so much Mali❤️
I keep looking at such happy trees and make them mine in my heart. What a lovely neighborhood, Jayanthy. Thanks for sharing and joining with this one. I hope to see you back tomorrow.
Thanks a lot, Parul. You are kind.
I agree with you when you state that one of things that helped you cope was looking at these lovely trees, greenery around always brings healing and calmness.. thanks for the beautiful quote and the picture.
