Sit Back and Enjoy the World

This blog is titled “Green is Good,” but we’re always just complaining about the crummy condition our environment is in and will be in the future, but this entry will be different. It will be reasons why we should be working on this problem.
This weekend I went home. At some point I went and took a walk, somewhere around 1:00 AM. I started it by walking through our beautiful green yard. The wet grass made my shoes shin in the moonlight. I then proceeded into the forest in my backyard. I walked under the darkness of the tree and listen to the crickets and whatever other animal that was bad there, maybe a groundhog or something. I came to the oh-so-ugly off-white fence that led me into the parking lot of the middle school located near my house. The cool air and fog went through to my skin, giving me comforting chills as I walked. I got to the playing field behind the school and just sat on a hill above the football field. I laid back and watched the stars and the moon. With the moist grass on my back and the light light (ha) from the sky I was completely happy and in awe of the world that we are in.
Thinking that any of this would ever change because we fucked it up would make me so very sad. I think just sitting in the grass and watching star is plenty enough for anyone to realize that we need to do our part in preserving the world as it is for our children, and their children. It just wouldn’t be fair to rob them of this place we take for granted everyday. So please, look at our links and our blogs and go out and stand up for the Earth, because Mother Nature has a bit of trouble defending her life.
