I like the way the article connects a tree with ourselves. Our outer selves are usually what people can see physically, the trunk is more internal thoughts of whatever you may have going on or how certain things in life have affected one, and then the roots are the more inner, mental type of thinking. This makes me think about how angry people are angry for their own respected reasons, why others can be more sensitive, and a different group might be more outgoing and laid back. It really makes you think about how everyone lives a different life, and how we all have different things going on that eventually make us unique in our own ways but also the same.
