Dear Sara, What an amazing and powerful metaphor for personal transformation and enlightenment. The imagery of lightning striking deeply, changing the tree's shape, beautifully captures the profound impact of inner growth and self-discovery. I love how you show that it is beauty and resilience that is found in embracing change. An evocative piece, Sara. - Blessings, Daniel
