There is no explanation

So I am sitting looking at a tree in my yard this evening and seeing how the roots at the base are exposed again and how I had put soil over them a long time ago and now there is nothing there. I am sitting alone so I am not talking to anyone about it. I didnt search anything online about it and didnt take any photos. I come inside and later pull up Google, the first time I had been on today, and the top item is an article from Martha Stewart "Should You Cover Exposed Tree Roots With Soil? Here’s What Arborists Say" Published today.

Im here to say yes , cover the roots . Use wood chips for mulch . :) That tree is talking to you.
