Stay rooted to the earth: Be the tree
We also have to stand like trees, rooted to the earth in all their beauty. The root’s significant functions are absorption of water and plant nutrition and anchoring the plant body to the ground. All components of the root architecture are regulated through a complex interaction between genetic responses and responses due to environmental stimuli. Plants can interact with one another in their environment through their root systems and have complex functions like the roots from one side of a tree usually supply nutrients to the foliage on the same side. We should give roots more credit.
