Trust like I have said earlier is the vital key to the bonds of relationships. Trust grows like how the big tall trees in the jungle, slowly and constantly if nothing serious happens. It is suppose to be established and unshaken by wind. If there are outside factors such as parasiting, rotting or lightning strikes, the very foundation of the trust will crumble. Parasiting and Lightning Strikes are similar, both an outer factor that will bring the great Trust down. Parasiting will slowly sap the essence of life that the tree had been keeping for it's lifetime and Lightning Strikes just strike without mercy at unexpected times. Rotting comes from the inside of the tree where the tree will be influenced by worms which lingers within it. Of course, you'll be lucky if there are some woodpeckers there to help you but in reality woodpeckers are almost extinct.
Even when the tree is big and strong and not affected by the 3 phenomena above, there are always someone who will try to axe it down for their own benefits. The benefits varies from one people to another. Money, popularity, or revenge (due to envy) might be the reasons behind the cutting down of the Trust tree. These group are forester.
As how the tree falls, every years taken to grow will be leveled to as low as the ground but as long as the roots are still intact to the ground, it will eventually grows and be a big tree again. Time is the factor to the growth. What was lost may not be achieved to the same extent as before but it's worth a try. The length of time to grow would probably be multiplied but it is still possible. When the tree falls, it will first need to clear whats inside, the worms that eating the very core. Then it needs to identify the parasites that are growing around it then throwing these parasites that are around it. Next is to let the growing to grow at it's own pace.
Parasites and Rotting can be stopped but Lightning Strikes and Forester are hard to prevent. The only thing to do is to equip the tree with some things to prevent the lightning strike at the same place and prepared for the unwanted forester. Probably by dropping some branches or durians on the foresters' head will do the job... not killing ya... remember self control and discipline to prevent rotting.
Lightning Strike is something that happens unexpectedly just like a god's trial to the tree. Parasiting is like the other beings around the tree that are taking advantage and trying to kill the tree at the same time. Rotting is from the tree's ignorance of self control and discipline. A forester kills the tree for utmost benefits and usually helped by the parasites. Roots will be your determination and inner strengths to withstand the fall to rise again.
