I saw a branch that had been cleanly cut off a tree and stripped bare of any branches and hammered into the ground, along with others. It was to stop people driving their cars and parking along a grass verge. This one branch obviously had taken root and was starting to grow again.

It made me think... sometimes in life we get uprooted, feel like we've lost our way, get placed in a situation where we never thought we'd be... take heart!

Give yourself time, there's plenty in you to take root, show fresh shoots of promise and keep on going. You'll find your feet soon enough.

Keep believing!
