Description
Life is determined, even when conditions are not ideal, trees and other living thigs can survive if they are determined to do so. I have planted many shrubs and trees around my house in my lifetime, fertilizing, watering, mulching, cajoling them to live to no avail, then I see a tree in a forest surviving with all its roots exposed by erosion, thriving with determination. I guess that is what is really needed, no matter what the conditions. Lesson learned, thanks nature!

Great interesting image of nature. I have a couple of these trees in my yard that are up on a hill and surviving with a huge root system. L/F

Looks like the tree is holding up the dirt vs the dirt holding up the tree. Interesting life lesson.
