Responsibility Towards the Planet

Responsibility Towards the Planet

Happy Earth Day!!!

Reflecting on the impact and price of materialism—I felt a profound sense of responsibility. One that I haven't felt in a number of years…

12 years ago, just shy of a couple of weeks, and after a year's worth of annoyances and grievances with a kid on the bus—I had the BRILLIANT idea of stabbing him with a pencil. So, one day after he sat in "my" spot on the bus, I got out one of my pencils and thrust it into his side.

My actions as a child have left a profound mark on my life, even today. They taught me what it means to take responsibility—which I believe can be applied to understand our responsibilities to the environment and our Earth.
