^Genetics, soil makeup, variability in watering. Also, see confirmation bias and ideas of reference. Not that I think there's anything wrong with you feeling a connection with the tree, and personifying it a lil'. It's certainly more innocuous than the marketolatry of laissez-faire types, in any case .

I think they do have feelings. But on a very vague, unconscious level compared to us. Like a young, healthy tree will be "happy", or give off a more positive vibe. While an old, sick tree or forest will be more gloomy or feel depressing to look at.

You're describing your own feelings looking at them, not feelings the trees have. Though it is common (and I do it myself) in English to describe a healthy plant as "happy" and an unhealthy one as "sad."

when I lay outside in my backyard and look at the sky, I first see a few stars -the brightest ones; if I continue looking long enough, the less bright ones which weren't initially visible, become visible; if I then focus upon them long enough, more become visible, and so on...

how can anyone be 100% sure of anything?

i think that consciousness (one unique universal consciousness) is potentially everywhere and that there are spikes of consciousness in complex organisms

the more complex the organism, the stronger the spike

Can you also blame your complete dearth of punctuation; fluctuations in spelling of the same word; and, misuse of basic grammatical devices on a lack of English language skills?

please enlighten us with your mastery of slovak

thanks to dob's efforts, you can exchange with a non-native speaker living on the other side of the planet
you should congratulate him rather than contemplate your navel

there is one thing we can be sure of : "i think therefore i am" (the existence of the consciousness asking this question)

 

[L2R]

i think we think we think far more than we actually think, so that certainty is closer than in most other concepts, but may not be entirely complete. i am a thinking thing, or i am observing a thinking sensation, or there is an image of a thought which is correlating to this idea or form of an ego within a certain context, and so on.

as for consciousness spikes, i agree. icebergs (lettuce).
