If there is an afterlife and I want to make a tree, where will it come from?

It's Sanmao's "Speak to Myself".

Original words: If there is an afterlife, I want to be a tree and stand for eternity, without any gestures of joy or sorrow. Half of it is peaceful in the soil, half of it is flying in the wind, half of it is covered with shade, and half of it is bathed in sunshine. It is very silent and very proud, never relying on and never looking for it.
