Yes, trees really do talk, says Dame Judi Dench

Yes, trees really do talk: As Dame Judi is seen listening to an ancient oak, how they exchange warnings, nurture their young and threaten rivals through the 'wood-wide web'.

Take a bracing stroll through a park or wood this weekend and you’ll hear the Arctic breeze rippling through the swaying, leafless branches, almost as if the trees are whispering to each other.

A fanciful thought, perhaps. But make no mistake, trees really do communicate.

They share nutrients, exchange warnings, nurture their young, threaten rivals and bequeath legacies, through an incredible network of roots and fungal threads that scientists call the ‘wood-wide web’.

The joy of trees: To Judi Dench they’re magical beings, and in her new show she sees just what the plants are capable of. When Dame Judi Dench’s husband Michael Williams died in 2001, she did what she always does when she loses a loved one: she planted a tree in his memory in the woodland behind her Surrey home. 

‘I do it because a tree is a living being, so the memory of that person carries on and gets ever more wonderful as it does so,’ she explains. Now, 16 years on, while filming her moving documentary My Passion For Trees, the Oscar-winning actress has made a joyous discovery.  She’s found out that trees not only keep the memory of a loved one alive, but also communicate with one another through the fungi network that connects them.

They do talk :o)

Yes, trees do talk and do more than that.

Yes we all know they do talk & not only to to each other, but also they do much more,without them this planet wouldn't be what it is for us humans either.

Multi Dimensional Reality

The world as you know it - all that you see, taste, feel and touch, comprises only about 5% of all of the stuff of the universe. The other 95% is what we have considered "nothing" or the "firmament"  or dark matter or the heavens or mystic Other Worlds. This 95% is multi-dimensional and consists of potential realities that may be perceived.

A single thought...a mere whisper, ...... barely upon a breeze that catches a spark... all is tinder before the firestorm... and yet.
ONLY that whisper
ONLY that thought
 the world is forever changed beyond the fears and dreams of cardboard men.
Freedom and change starts within:
It is encouraged by truth and courage of people who love
Built by the respect of true beings standing as one before each other.
Lets us cross every man made borders
without fear stare into eyes and hearts of all our brothers and sisters: within our words without shouting,or force to hold each to our truths; and let us without fear freely share what works...
