Curly Willow

Our curly willows are different then our other trees. They don't lose their leaves until November, when all the rest of the trees have been bare for several weeks. Now, all the other trees have their fresh new leaves, but the willows are still bare.

They remind me of myself, always different then most people. I'm different in big ways such as being a professional belly dancing, shamanic, Reiki master. And, I'm different in small ways, such as being the only car driving east from the coast at the same time hundreds of cars are driving west towards the coast.

Sometimes I love being different and sometimes I suffer for it. But, life is never, ever boring.
