Desert Oak




To survive and grow up in the desert, it depends on underground water vein.
In their childhood of Desert Oak, they are very thin and look wimpy.
But there are reasons that lets a hot wind go and don't get heat too much until it finds underground water vein.


Once roots come out deeply and gets underground water,
a trunk become thick, branch are extended and it grows up as a big tree so quickly.
It becomes a really big, hard, and strong tree.
They will survive from repeated wild fire.


eIt is similar to human beings, isnft it?'f
The guide of this tour, Peter told me.


'Once we find a reason to live, we will become stronger than we thought.'
Yes, Peter, that is true!


Desert Oak as become an example for me.
