“I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by conscious endeavor.” Henry David Thoreau
"Earth, inhabitied by life but limited to its ends
beauty comes from appreciation and respect, forever and till the end.
Disgusted some may be
rightfully so, its obvious what they see
so many with no appreciation of what's here, was here, and will be.
Caring minds will guide our future but selfishness will make the ride a bumpy one.
Forgiving our blunders sets us free, together victory can be won.
As the battle rages on...our enemies become clear
because today we can fight only our fear.
Time is neither friend nor foe, begining and end has no meaning.
No records kept and no evidence shown
of how it all began and where it will go.
Rest assured that another day will follow
and be aware that this day has already gone
but never forget and always remember... its you and I that hold it all together.
Alone we can be fruitful but as one we can be useful."
