This tree doesn’t resemble me
much, but this shows my positive and my negative sides.
This tree is unique because
it is the only Eucalyptus species found naturally in the Northern Hemisphere.
Just like me, I am unique! Well, everyone is exceptional in their own ways. Its
natural distribution spans New Britain, New Guinea, Ceram, Sulawesi and Mindanao, which
clearly states that its exceptionality really originated from its native land.
My skills and talents are alike with its rareness, it developed at home and
enhanced at school, which are my natural habitats.
People usually see this tree for its ornamental purpose but
when you look deep inside, you’ll see its purpose. This rainbow colored tree is
used in making papers. Yes, I bet you don’t believe me, but it really is born
for that purpose. In that case, I have both of my positive and negative sides. I
am not that kind of girl for ornamental ‘display.’ I’m not one of those pretty
ladies out there. But what I know is, my purpose for living is what’s inside
me. I may not be pretty in the eyes, but I can be pretty in the heart.
To tell you the truth, I can’t consider myself as a giving
tree. People say that if you give you must be hurt, you must feel it, but when
I give, I can’t feel the hurt. I just give what I can, not giving what they
need. Like when I or we give clothes, when we’re asked to donate, we give those
that are already used; sometimes there are no buttons, no zippers. Do you think
that is what we call ‘giving’? Giving what you don’t need any more is like
disposing. It’s like treating those recipients, trash cans. See?
