Shunned
The Sun slowly fades /
as the Earth tilts toward the stars. /

Earth Day, everyday
We can no longer exploit the resources of this earth—the trees, the water, and other natural resources—without any care for coming generations. Common sense tells us that unless we change, we won’t survive. This Earth Day let’s resolve to live in harmony with nature.
—Dalai Lama
