Poisoned by another root

Here's something I didn't know — and probably, neither did you. According to Paul Wray, a forester at Iowa State University:

Trees can share root systems. If two roots of the same species grow next to each other, as they grow in diameter, they may grow or graft together. This has implications when trees growing next to each other are infected with vascular diseases that may be transmitted through root grafts.

So, two trees growing side by side can merge their roots together. If one of the trees is diseased, it can transmit that disease through its roots to the healthy tree — but apparently, not the other way around.

I'm beginning to think that these similarities between the life of trees and the life of people are not just coincidences. As I said earlier, God does teach us through nature.

The lesson here is that if you join together with someone who has bad roots, chances are that their bad roots will spoil yours — rather than your good roots heal theirs.

It sure offers you a strong reason to rethink your friendships, colleagues, business partners, future husband/wife, and the effects that those you grew up with have had on you.

We can't heal someone else's bad roots. They have to do it for themselves. And for us to deal with our own roots, sometimes we have to cut off the bad influence that others have had on us.
