Talking to my trees

I was in New York City yesterday and I talked with my trees.

I know, that sounds rather bizarre, but they are the only things that are alive in Manhattan that aren’t moving at 100 MPH.

They sit outside my subway station, just across from the World Trade Center, and some of them have watched the city since George Washington was President. One of them was killed when the World Trade Center was destroyed. Obviously, they have seen a lot.

Anyhow, yesterday they told me the key to a good life. ROOTS, SHOOTS AND FRUITS.  They said that the deeper the roots go, the stronger the shoots will be. If the shoots are strong, they produce good fruits.

Made me consider just how deep my roots go in this life.

Not a bad conversation for a bunch of trees.

Just say’n.

Readers’ hearts will be beating hard as they join in this adventure where people come back from the dead, wear so many facades you’re not quite sure who’s on the good or bad side of the law, while experiencing the growing attraction between the lady ‘cop’ who could be lying through her teeth and the normally bored psychologist who stepped into the adventure of a lifetime.

The author, a practicing psychotherapist, certainly knows how to light a fire at the beginning of a tale and guide the reader through all types of personalities and red herrings that will make them very disappointed when the story has to come to an end.

Quill Says: This is one psychologist who has met his match when it comes to a truly astonishing female!
