Orange trees: one concept,two entities.
In reality,they're not the same.
One has 203 leaves and the other 106.
One has roots that run 6 ft deep and the other 3.
One has many branches and the other only a few,yet we call them the same tree.

We live in a world of illusions that allow us to survive and thrive.
Our family,friends,and loved ones are illuions as well.
