Attributed
to the Talmud- an Ancient Eastern Thinking and Jose Martí, Cuban revolutionary
and poet, argued that; "(Every man should) plant a tree, have a child, and
write a book. These all live on after us, insuring a measure of
immortality." The three things will
make mankind to live a fulfilled life, not only that, having the three legacies
that will live on longer when you die.
In spotlighting, among
the three stated roles of humanity; planting a tree has splendid benefits to
our time and to the coming generation. This doesn’t mean to exclude the two other
stated roles of “having a child” and “writing a book.” Take your precious time
as a key resource, your energy with wise decision to address for the same to have
life with fulfillment.
Planting a tree will make
you get connected directly with Nature, as will add important ingredient of
Nature for you, to your generation and the ecosystem. It’s for aesthetic, shade
and good aeration with soothing sound when planted around your premises.
In scientific
perspective, conservationists affirmed that, planting trees played a key role
in capturing carbon dioxide (one of greenhouse gases) for their survival, in
doing so reduce the earth’s warming effect thus protect animals from the effects
of global warming.
The growth of a tree, with
increased height, branches and increased girth, signify the growth and maturity
of your child of the same age to that tree. Also, each tree can be a living
record of various stages in life.
Planting a tree for your
children and for the future generation create honor to each children. Your
children will consider you expressing your authentic love to them in action, as
they will remember and live you in many years to come. It makes a great concern
for a child and your generation to value and nurture those trees, also, for
them to keep on planting more trees in creating another history.
So, find a way in which
you can have a plan to plant trees, even a single tree each year, as you will
be happy and the coming generation will be happy for you with your three
legacies.
