This blossom used to be a tree that people prayed to. They prayed for fame, fortune, cured sickness, and less smelly gym socks. The tree, one day, started withering, symbolizing that it was it's time. Eventually, the tree stopped giving wishes, and died. Many people come today to admire the tree for all it's good deeds. They call it "Donum ex Deo," or "Gift from God." #blossom #gettogether #cherrytree #shrine #noCC #garden #nationalpark #wishingtree
