Its thought that leads to action, its the key, the rest will fall like dominoes with OUR RESOLVE! WE CAN AND WILL SAVE OUR EARTH< BELIEVE IT IN YOUR HEART AND IT SHALL BE!! HELP IS ON THE WAY IF OUR HEARTS ARE TRUE! I LOVE TREES!!!!!

I never saw a discontented tree. They grip the ground as though they liked it, and though fast rooted they travel about as far as we do. They go wandering forth in all directions with every wind, going and coming like ourselves, traveling with us around the sun two million miles a day, and through space heaven knows how fast and far! ~John Muir
