It can be wicked easy to get attached to the idea that relationships are supposed to last forever – and that people and how we relate to one another are supposed to stay the same. This notion gets reinforced in our minds, because our brains really like familiarity and don't particularly love change. When it comes to human beings and relationships - things remaining the same - is not a reasonable expectation because like trees, we're all destined to grow.Today on The Karen Kenney Show, we're talking about how people are kind of like trees and the different relationships they find themselves in. Some relationships weather the toughest storms, bending but not breaking. Others provide support, shade or nourishment for a time before falling away. But all are built on the foundation, the roots, that started with what we learned in our earliest home life with our family.If you were to look at the people in your own life - what kind of “trees” would you discover? Do you have strong, stable Redwoods? Or are they a low bush that's never going to grow and it may be time to uproot and move on from them? As with trees, sometimes relationships wither away, but it doesn't mean they didn't serve a purpose when they came into our life. Like trees, relationships grow and change with each passing season with some remaining long term like evergreens and others moving on to grow alongside someone else. So, take a look around and ask yourself, “Who am I standing in the forest of this life with and are there any that I may have outgrown that it is time to say goodbye to? Plus, what kind of tree am I being to others?”KK's Takeaways:• Trees, Relationships + Personal Growth (01:36)• Family Roots (7:17)• Toxic Family Dynamics + Self-Care (13:25)• Tree Trunks, Growth + Relationships (15:51)• Self-Awareness (21:34)• The Cycles Of Relationships (27:43)• Building Sturdy Relationships (32:49)• Spiritual Growth + Internal Resources (36:09)• Personal Growth + Relationships (42:13)• Spark Of Life (47:38)Karen Kenney is a certified Spiritual Mentor, Hypnotist, Integrative Change Worker and a Life Coach.

Disclaimer: we talk out of our asses a lot and this episode has many tangents. Tune in to hear all about bog bodies, our thoughts on pickles, and how Georgia feels about people who wear socks to sleep. Shout out to Marshall at Maja Island Music for our awesome new intro. Check them out: Insta: MajaIslandMusic Website: majaislandmusic.com After some research, Adventure Time Wiki informed us that it’s Mr. Pig that Tree Trunks was marrying and LSP just ruined their party. LSP may or may not be dating Lemongrab 3, reports say. Basically, Georgia was right and Sonjay was wrong. Additionally, Georgia remembered that it’s Eartha Kitt from that episode of Community; not Betty Grable. Whoops.

Hilarity ensues as our adventurers cautiously inspect the contents of a mysterious jar. Rhakna leads the way. Triggus opens his eyes. Kai finds something new on the map.

Van Gogh’s extraordinary and tragic life, his feelings and thoughts revealed in prolific correspondence, often overwrites the material reality of his paintings. He was a pioneer of modern art, using the genres of landscape, portraiture and still life to experiment with form and colour. Here, in an extraordinary close-up rendition of urban nature, Tree trunks in the grass, Van Gogh reinvigorates the landscape format by looking down into it instead of outwards, and thus eliminates both horizon and sky. He wrote about the painting in a letter to his brother Theo in early May 1890, in which he also details a planned journey from the asylum at Saint-Rémy to the care of Dr Gachet at Auvers-sur-Oise: … my work is going well, I have done two canvases of the fresh grass in the park, one of which is extremely simple, here is a hasty sketch of it. The trunk of a pine violet-pink and then the grass with white flowers and dandelions, a little rose tree and other tree trunks in the background right at the top of the canvas.1 By cropping the composition so radically, especially at the top and bottom, Van Gogh shows how well he absorbed the strategies of Japanese woodblock artists. He combines these with the exemplar of photography, focusing on one part of an object to stand in for the whole. Verticals and diagonals struggle for dominance, with the main tree trunks sloping slightly, boldly placed off-centre. Our eye is led back by white accents from the foreshortened ground in a zigzag, and through the central field into the dappled lawn under the far trees. It lingers briefly, returning by means of blue marks, to the central motif. In Tree trunks in the grass, the artist’s palette is reduced to light shades of green, white and yellow, highlighted by blue and a little red, allowing tones to accentuate the texture of the main trunk. Other trunks are blue-black, dark against bright spring vegetation. Van Gogh’s characteristically energetic paintstrokes, delicate in the flowers and thicker in the grass, become rugged in the bark of the trees. This landscape was observed close-to, painted on the spot in the asylum garden at the end of April 1890. Van Gogh is a specific, rather than a general, artist: that is, he uses the immediate to communicate larger themes. Looking at the painting, we feel the joy of being outdoors, where sunlight and flowered grass suffuse our senses.
