My own personal philosophy:

Every family tree is a composite of many different types of trees:
Some parts are blossoming,
Some parts are full of nuts,
Some parts shoot up and excell about the others,
Some parts have gone bad and are rotten to the core,
Some parts are full of fruits,
Some parts a firm and strong-very had to break,
Some parts are weak and break very easily,
Some parts are weak, but flexible-they can bend without breaking,
Some parts have a dense bark which is hard to penetrate,
Some parts have a light bark, easy to get under,
Some parts grow in an easily predictable manner,
Some parts shoot off into a manner that no one expects,
And some parts are just perfect for separating and starting a new tree of it's own.
Think of everyday as "Arbor Day" when researching our trees and appreciate the beauty of all parts!
