For Trees So Tall is a layered web of interconnected truths that set me on two distinct paths; one of suffering and self sabotage, the other of courage and light. I sometimes walked both paths at the same time, each giving way to the other again and again. Had it not been for Charlie, my four legged companion and the peace I found in the Colorado wilderness, I may have chosen the shadow rather than the light.

Walk these paths with me, see your own dark and light and know beyond a shadow of a doubt, you too can choose the light and be the example for others. You too can let go the burden of what others have put upon you and grow into your best self. Like the tall trees of the forest that have weathered countless storms, you too can grow ever closer to the light.
