Be like a tree.
Good Morning Bulb Family!
Greetings, everyone!
Introduction
Before I start today, let’s take a moment. Let me breathe... Ahhh... Now, I’m fine. It’s all about relaxation. If I’m not relaxed, how can I make you comfortable? So, welcome to my writing world. Please take your seat. I hope you enjoy it. I’m your host, Jawad, asking for your permission to proceed. Shall we?

Now, I think it's time to delve into today's topic. But before I begin, if you haven't checked out my previous articles, I encourage you to do so.
Embracing the Dawn
Be like a tree.
Look at this picture closely. What you see is a tree. I captured this picture and wanted to share it with all of you. Besides, I wanted to express my feelings through it. This tree is on our campus, which recently reopened after a long lockdown due to the pandemic. We all went through that experience, so I won’t elaborate on it. Back to the point: we always sit under this tree after our classes. We did the same today. While we were sitting under it, discussing our lessons and class routines, something different caught my attention.
Look at the structure of the tree. What you can see now is the upper layer, right? It is broken in several parts—cracked, I should say. It reminds me of how our skin feels in winter. But this is about the tree. This situation occurred because it's time for the tree to change its shape.
We all know that trees grow tall and round like this. Before they do, they must shed their outer layer, which ensures their strong form. During autumn and late autumn, they begin changing their outer shape. In winter, the old leaves dry up and fall. We all notice this, right? They prepare for a new shape in the spring. So, what’s the moral of the story? Do you get it? Let me explain.
Change Yourself Like the Tree
The tree begins to change itself to become stronger, growing big enough to withstand natural calamities. We can learn from this. If you want to change yourself, you need to break through your outer shell to reveal your stronger side to the world. Before becoming a big tree, it must go through several phases of its life. If you’ve ever planted a tree, you know this well. Initially, the tree is too weak to stand alone, but then it starts to endure the harshness of nature and the environment. Soon, the soft stem becomes hard and resilient. Each year, it grows more and more, eventually becoming a tall and strong tree. Sometimes, we get bullied by others and think it’s the end of everything. But we forget that our willpower is stronger than anything else, ensuring our survival on this earth. This is called 'survival.' Some might think it’s the end of our career, but we must remember that we have the potential to become the next warriors, ready to fight against all odds.
Rebuild Your Character
Look at the trees around you. Their bark breaks away, allowing them to grow stronger than ever. We can learn from this and apply it to our own lives. We can break away from our old habits and rebuild ourselves to become worthy and resilient in this world. People often become jealous of our achievements and try to make us feel guilty. No matter how much satisfaction they derive from this, they are a threat to us.
To protect ourselves from such jealous people and their toxic mentality, we need to be strong—not only internally but also in our outward character. So, be like a tree. Rebuild yourself.

Until we meet again, stay curious, stay connected, and above all, stay true to yourself.
