Why is it that...

I love trees just because they make me feel good. The fact they produce oxygen is a definite plus as well. I love breathing oxygen too.

I love paintings of trees but also the actual ones. I love forests. I would live in the middle of one if I could.

I find trees to be so symbolic? When I see paintings with trees (not landscape paintings that are obviously just there to be pretty) my reaction is always to think that there is some deep meaning the artist is trying to convey.

Perhaps those artists were all hippies?

They're a true symbol of perfect harmony and life itself. Different branches going in different directions like the paths of destiny. At the end of each branch is a new life or leaf! (Wow that was pretentious of me).

Hahaha!

Trees make me feel so elated. I drive for 40 minutes to and from work on a parkway that's lined with trees. There's nothing so beautiful.

That's interesting you say that, because I always thought similarly about trees. Like the trunk is what you're born with-your personality, your whole being. As life goes on, the branches go on to different ways, representing the different destinies/paths you might go, but it's up to you which to choose. Meanwhile, the roots grow bigger and wider too, representing the strength, all that's unseen with the eyes.
Anyway, I suck at expressing these kindsa thoughts, but yea, good question, Sunshine

May it is because the discernible physical structure of consciousness, neurons, look a lot like them:
