A Fish Who Recognized Nirvana

A tiny fish in a polluted pond struggled to breathe. She is suddenly scooped up with a batch of the stinky water. It is poured off her, and she is plunked into a fresh water tank With her friends, and plenty of sweet air, tunnels, bridges, and ferns. She is amazed and excited; her prayers were answered. Feeling badly for the rest of her family, all of whom are dying a stifling Death in a pond that once was full of fresh cool spring water. A pond that has been a dumping ground for a factory without A conscious. The tiny fish begins making new friends, Optimism revived, excited to live, knowing her parents will Be thrilled for her also. Realizing how wonderful breathing is again.

Thank you Pixie. It is the fish, and the birds, and the snakes, and the raccoon, fox, skunk, and everything else who are suffering when we allow pollution and big business to destroy their pure drinking water.
