Tree of Life

"Sadness gives depth, happiness gives height.

Sadness gives roots, happiness gives branches.

Happiness is like a tree going into the sky. Sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth.

Both are needed.

The higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes. Simultaneously.

The bigger a tree, the bigger will be its roots.

In fact, it is always in a porpotion.

That's its balance."

-Osho
