The Tree of Life, in the Book of Genesis, is a tree in the "New Jerusalem" whose "fruit" gives everlasting life, i.e. immortality. After eating from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, the biblical account states, Adam and Eve are exiled from the Garden of Eden. To punish Adam and Eve, God set angels to guard the entrance to the Garden, after which point they lost access to the Tree of Life and their immortality. excerpt from Wikipedia

Means many things to me as one who used to be pagan and as one who is a believer in christ. I really can not wait until i will eat from this tree and be with those who have gone on before me in faith.

It also represents the unitedness of all life to me. That All life is precious and decisions , actions all have ramifications.
in faith
