Today I learned how to identify a hazardous tree situation and how to estimate the falling distance of a tree. Also I learned that severe wind and saturated soil can fell a tree, even a healthy one. I see a metaphor—sometimes under a combination of circumstances, anyone can get mental illness (falling of the mind).

As an author and a community spirit, I, Teresa LeYung Ryan, use my novel Love Made of Heart to shed light on stigmas suffered by women, men and children with mental illness/traumas to the mind. I speak out for those who cannot speak for themselves.
