    The tree of the knowledge of good and evil is the formation of a value system; or rather, a "judgement" system. Living in the tree of life is making decisions from life and liberty, and what stimulates life in both you and others.

I would like to begin with some food for thought by sharing a real life illustration of a historical figure who walked in the tree of life. George ...read more
