hug it

people who don't tear up for a tree have problems. man! they are cutting down the 20+ trees across the street today and i am seriously broken up about it. i LOVE those trees. sure, they are sticking the eyesore water reservoir underground, but still - they can't replace those trees. and they won't try. i feel like i should have fought harder for them b/c like willy santiago, they couldn't fight for themselves.



i like making really broad statements about people. like i almost started this posting with "i have nothing in common with people who don't cry for trees." well that's a little drastic. "nothing" is a little much. but i do rely on so many miniscule details to judge a persons character. i will try to make note of them and return with a list. #1: being sad that a big old tree is cut down for no good reason.
