There's a novel called The Overstory and a central theme of it is the trees and the people that come to a moment where a tree changed their life. They try to change to the same mindset as they think the trees have to have another moment with the trees. It's disaster for the people ultimately and the tree is just like what did you expect, you have your time and we have had ours

At least trees take an appropriate amount of time to get tall! Freaking sunflowers do it in a year! You know how tall I was when I was 1!?
Take a look at tall grass when you get a chance.
i dunno, a kilometer?
But trees are supposed to be tall.
Flowers, not so much.
Damn triffids!
Nobody tell them about palm trees which are technically grass
You can touch grass by pressing a palm against a palm.

I'm pressing so fucking hard right now, but its not working.
The Hollyhock in my backyard is eleven foot seven inches (three point three five metres).
Take that, some percentage of the populations of sunflowers.
I’ll probably be alive next year, though. Now who’s winning?
Still sunflower 😢
