Save The Environment


Drip, drip, drip. The constant motion of Hope and Aspiration puddles on top of Life.  Life looks up and absorbs love and devotion that his parents shower upon him.

With a humble gesture, Life’s parents, Aspiration and Hope, prepare him to gradually succeed and digest the nutrients around him.

As the goods offer themselves over to Life, they then soon depart from him.  As a vigorous cycle progresses through Life, he endures pain and resentment around him.  He doesn’t grasp the understanding that the soil beneath him is there for cushion, not traps, and the sky is there for goals, not limits.  Life hinders here and there, but just in moments Uncle Sun extends his rays upon Life and guides him to stand up to pesky bugs and prevents him from being mowed over.  Not only does Uncle Sun help, but also Aunt Rain.  She showers her blessing and wisdom across Life’s spirit.  Just as Family was there for Life, his best friend, Time, was always by his side.  They both laughed, mourned, grieved, and hung out.

As Time and Life evolved into independent symbols, they sprinkled their intellect and guidance over their young ones.  They became a pact, a partnership that hovered over the majestic lands.  Life and Time not only casted a base of protection, but also supplied gifts and assistance to the unfortunate.  Well kept, nurtured, and confident, Life and his buddy Time stood and will always stand tall and mighty over yours, his, hers, and my house.  Sure they will drop problems and difficulties on our yards, but it’s up to us to rake them aside and create a clean and adequate environment for everyone.
