Something New To Do

Something New To Do All the world was a stage while black crude emptied into the ocean blue, everyone tuned in and offered their two cents on how to contain this oil spout that spewed. What if no one pointed fingers at each other, no blaming the oil conglomerate, the President of the U.S., or the oil rig crew. What if we just all put our brain power and resources together to answer this environmental riddle instead of watching cartoons or going to the zoo. Once we put two and two together and came up with an answer, what if we let the world as a whole take the credit for pulling our efforts together and rising to the occasion to save our wild life family, the one’s in the ocean blue. What if we started to wean ourselves off of the need for this black crude and got in the mood to walk to work or ride the tube? Wouldn’t that be something new?
