What Tree Did You Fall From?

[JadziaKathryn]

Then again, I've never believed in any of these things, like astrology!

Me neither... if I happen upon a horoscope I read it for a good chuckle. It can be quite amusing.

Well, we must have almost the same birthday then. What's yours? I'm the 6th.

The 9th.

[Distracted]

Mine said I was quiet and shy.

Pine Tree (Peacemaker)-- loves agreeable company, craves peace and
harmony, loves to help others, active imagination, likes to write
poetry, not fashion concious, great compassion, friendly to all, falls
strongly in love but will leave if betrayed or lied to, emotionally
soft, low self-esteem, needs affection and reassurance.

I think I can state unequivocably that no one has ever accused me of being a peacemaker. Pine! I was afraid of this. I don't even get to be a decent hard wood.

They got the low self-esteem and the active imagination right. I've never liked poetry. And I scored zero for nurturing on the only vocational test I ever took -- I guess that kind of torpedoes the compassion. I do like agreeable company, though, which is why I hang out around here.

Pine! I was afraid of this. I don't even get to be a decent hard wood.

On the plus side, pines provide welcome green in the winter.

Oak Tree (Brave) -- robust nature, courageous, strong, unrelenting,
independent, sensible, does not like change, keeps its feet on the
ground, person of action.


Not quite sure if this really is me, kinda, but not quite. I think I procrastinate too much to be a person of action though ! At least I can feel special that the day of my birth garners its' own tree.

Black 'n Blue, we have almost the same birthday, and so does Bether. And the tree description is WAY off.

Hey all. I thought I'd drop in to say hello. So I'm a Weeping Willow, huh? I think some of it is accurate, some not.

Weeping Willow (Melancholy) - likes to be stress free

Yes, but I'm definitely NOT stress free.

loves family, life, full of hopes and dreams, YES!

attractive-- Not really

very empathetic--I'd like to think so

loves anything beautiful , musically inclined , loves to travel to exotic
places--Not really. I like my feet on the ground.

restless, capricious (getting out dictionary), honest, can be influenced but is not easy
to live with when pressured (don't think I'm easily influenced), sometimes demanding, good intuition,
suffers in love until they find that one loyal, steadfast partner (YES!); loves
to make others laugh. (sure, but that doesn't mean I'm actually funny)

Hi Beth!

[TPoptarts]

Yeah hi Beth

Mine said I was quiet and shy.

So that's where my tagline went! Give it back!!

This suits me better than my own (I'm June 13th, and I cant remember what tree that is)

Stress free = HELL YEAH! (But, sadly, not stress free at all)

Loves Family = Well, I dont have my own family (yet) and I do like to keep to myself most of the time so, meh.

Full of hopes and dreams = Somewhat

Attractive = Not heavily so

Musically inclined = I like good music, and I can tell you where the keys are on a piano, but other than that, I'm tone deaf.

Loves to travel to exotic places = Not really, I like my cocoon the way it is (though it would be nice if it was a bit warmer.)

Restless = Sometimes

Oxford english dictionary gives capricious as;

• adjective given to sudden and unaccountable changes of mood or behaviour.

Capricious = Yeah, sometimes.

Honest = Yes

Can be influenced but is not easy to live with when pressured = Thats me

Suffers in love until they find that one loyal, steadfast partner = See above

Loves to make others laugh. = Sort of, I'm no comedian though.

Poplar? Well, somewhat. Loner part fits...I need massive doses of solitude. When I disappear into my lair in the basement, you better leave me alone.

[Linda]

Hey, anyone consider that if their tree does not fit that perhaps their parents lied about their birthdate for some reason? Just playing devil's advocate here, stirring up trouble...again. Does a different tree fit? Well, food for thought.
