Hello Artels,
It’s almost and in some parts, already winter. Hope you all have your own source of warmth to get through this cold season. Blankets, sweaters and an affectionate heart of course, will help you to be warm.
Last week I was hanging with few friends in a mall. We were sitting on a bench, window shopping, with a cup of coffee for all of us. As we finished I threw the paper cup aiming a dustbin few yards away. Not being a good sportsman betrayed me as it flew over the bin and ended up falling in front of a little girl; not more than 4 years old. She picked it up, put it in the bin and smiled at me, then ran to a lady sitting with another young boy on another bench in front of us. The lady, surely her mother, clapped and ran her fingers in the little girl’s hair. Then to my great surprise she started picking up all the thrown away packets and cups around her and putting them in the dust bin. Her mother, unlike any mother would have done, gave her a smile for every time she recycled any thrown away thing.
Within a minute that young boy, likely to be her older brother, joined her in her ‘mission’ and started collecting cups and empty food packets around them and dumped them in the bin. Few teenagers joined them and soon there was not a single piece of trash on the ground.
Three of them went to the food court a minute later. I was looking at them and thanking the little girl for not throwing me in the dust been, indeed she should have. From that day on every time I see her sweet little face whenever I see trash. I surely don’t pick up others’ but I never threw a single piece of junk on the open myself. That is exactly how inspiration works, she never spoke a word, her actions moved her brother and few more, that day. I guess we have passed that age when we could do what she did but we can surely take care of our own responsibilities. I am not going to bore you with ‘copy-pasted’ numbers to show how mush have we dumped on our earth. The outcomes are not looking good and it’s a high time to start to care about our environment. A clear, green earth is the way our future generation should remember us.
