The trees wish to share from there perspective what it is like to be. They communicate in telepathy and remind us that we are one with them and one with the all. The trees consider themselves each a tree within a greater whole or wholes. The first whole is the forest that they inhabit, and then the other plants, animals and life forms. They share that they feel themselves as the earth and are inbedded in her, Mother Earth, and have become her through the roots and the exchange of energy and matter with the Mother or Mater, the Latin word for mother. They  show us that minerals are her life force and we see minerals as a different thing. They absorb the life force of the Mother and give back their life force with the all, the One. We see minerals as a small constituent that helps us be healthy, a necessity like vitamins that comes through our food. We see it as a virtually irrelevant, tiny, and not so important thing. Yet the trees see our and their exchange of life force with Mother Earth as our continued bonding and blending. They show how the minerals in our blood connect us to Mother Earth and allow us to be a part of her and her a part of us. It is through experiencing each other as ourselves.
