Elementally Speaking - Q&A

Q: There is a wonderful small family run hotel on Capri called Villa Tosca, where my husband and I stay whenever we are there. On our recent visit we learned that the beautiful pine tree that sits right outside the front door of the hotel had recently had one of it's diseased limbs removed. Because of this sap was leaking from where it had once been attached. No matter what they tried to do, it continued to drip sap onto the path, and often the people below. At a loss they asked me if I ask the tree what they needed to do to make it stop. This was what the Pine Tree told them...

A: When ones in your society loose a limb do the not bleed, do they not suffer the loss, awaiting time to heal. Thus it is so in our world as well. Like those that live in yours we also suffer such losses. Even though as we know this must happen eventually (because of disease in this case) that loss is still part of our being and is incurred (felt) in our world. Thus it takes time to heal, both physically and mentally not only in your lives, but in ours as well. Patience is not something that suits your world but should be acknowledged. All things take time to heal and accepting this, and what Nature brings, you should accept this and move on. The sap, as you call it, will cease only when the time of healing is complete... understand? So it is so.
