The things the coast teaches you.
I spotted this tree, like many along the South West Coast Path - shaped by years of salt, wind and storms, growing at an angle that only makes sense when you see where it stands.
It hasn’t waited for easier times.
It’s adapted, dug in, and kept reaching anyway.
A quiet reminder that we all face tough conditions at times.
But we still get to choose -
to stay stationary, playing victim… or to demand more from the one life we’ve been given. 🌿
