For the Future of Our World

For the future of our world.

We need to be strong enough to stand up against those who wish to ruin it.

Say "We live here too."

"And even if it was just you here, it would still be wrong."

It's never right to tear down tree after tree, for no other reason then to build real estate.

It's fine to chop down trees for the forest's sake, but not for that.

It's never right to pour garbage and chemicals into our water.

Animals need that water too.

It's never right to destroy our Earth.

I used to think the future was bright.

I don't anymore.

Not when there's clouds of pollution in our skies, making it hard for everyone, not just people, to breathe.

Not when people are hunting elephants for their ivory tusks.

Not when all these animals are losing their homes because of us.

Not when we are ruining our world.

Bring back that bright future.

Remember that the Earth and all her creatures matter.

And stand up for them.

For the future of our world.

  • Sometimes

    Sometimes I wonder about the person I seem to be.

    Is she truly me or someone else entirely?

    Is it real or just a mask?

    And if she's just a mask, then who am I?

    Am I surrounded by lights?

    Or shadows?

  • This is not the way

    This is not the way.

    Attacking people simply because they're creating a weapon we already have?

    Why should they not make protection?

    I mean, if we attack them for making this weapon, why don't we just attack ourselves?
