There is a common thread, a universality that holds us all together. Like the roots of trees clinging together beneath the soil. On the surface we see trees that seem separate, growing in a variety of trajectories reaching for the warm rays of the sun. But under the surface roots become intertwined, woven together in an indestructible web. A web that holds strong when typhoons and tsunamis hit the surface. A root bond, that keeps us believing in the human spirit. The vibrance of the soul and the strength of our being.
