This lonely tree stood all by itself on the crest surrounded by the pretty ones.
A true survivor
Separate from the crowd
You are on your own.
The elements take a toll
Your hair is thin
Your skin pale.
Yet, you stand straight
Limbs reach forward
Belief in something more.
Valued for who you are
Individual, non-conformist
Separate from the crowd.
Lonely, but not alone
Spacious solitude
Create your own beauty.

About ivonprefontaine
I have been an educator for almost 20 years. Prior to that, I worked in private industry for 15 years, then returned to university to earn my education degree. For the past 11 years, I have been a co-creator of learning in a unique, progressive, alternative educational school of choice. Currently, I am engaged in a doctoral program at Gonzaga University in Spokane. A main theme in my learning there has been the roles of systems thinking, complexity theory, and organizational theory, and how they apply to education generally and the learning environment I share with students, parents, and colleagues.
Love this, beautiful and encouraging!
I agree, beautiful and encouraging. Even in solitude we are never alone.

Thank you, Russ. We each have a different view of the world and I think we each see our own beauty in it.
