Tree of Our Love

“Tree of Love” carries a similar theme, reflecting the connection between our bodies and our transformation as a part of nature. After meeting my wife, I learned so much about relationships, about how we need to invest in each other and commit to each other’s growth. To beat homophobia, we need to nurture and support each other to eliminate any negative energy from our lives together.
