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.
