   Interesting thought. First the tree cuts of the flow of sap as if knowingly saying I have no more use for this leaf. Then in the richness of our the autumn colours the leaf changes and departs from the tree. A natural (and beautiful) letting go.

     Brilliant additional thought about the tree cutting off the sap. Often the sap we feed the afflictive thought is not helpful rumination, but often negative and automatic.

   all those thoughts of past hurts – let them go, it’s the first step in the process of forgiveness. We can’t stop the thoughts popping into our heads, but we can refuse to feed them.

   Yes, forgiveness is one of the most important themes, thank you.
