'It's ok to be not ok' ..

 

The March theme for City Daily Photo bloggers around the world is solitude.. a state of solitude or isolation. Here along the banks of the Swan River a lone blue tree in amongst its green companions. Did you know that the original blue tree, now happening all around the world, was painted here in WA in the country town of Mukinbudin 298 km east of Perth. You can see a picture of the original tree and read how it came about HERE, a vitally important story that should be given our full attention. Take care and stay safe..

Visit the CDP Theme Day gallery to see more images for 'solitude'..

    What a sad story about the origin of the Blue Tree. In these days of Covid pandemic depression is more common than ever. These folk should be able to get all the help they need. Thanks for this post, Grace.

    Sadly depression is on the rise, due to the pandemic and isolation. I have seen a few blue trees around Perth parks. Thanks for sharing Grace, all the best to you :)

    Definitely an important quote, depression is alot more common these days especially with more people being open about it.
