The 1967 old country western film title, "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly", inspired me to entitle my blog.
Water is "The Good", we need water for most everything, and with the water drought, which creates a shortage, here in California, it is a precious thing. Most people take water for granted, in that it doesn't matter if we run it for however long we need to. But what a rude awakening to some it has been to discover the water rationing we have. Our bill is now affected with the cost of running water. From the time of day, how much it costs, not being able to wash our cars or even water our lawns.
Trash is "The Bad", and trash is, just that, trash. It's gross, smelly, rancid, moldy, disgusting and I could go on and on with other adjectives to describe trash, as I'm sure most of you can too. There is nothing good about trash and I don't see why people think it's OK to throw their garbage everywhere. There truly is no respect for others when people put their litter wherever they feel so entitled to.
Graffitti is "Tne Ugly" Who can see beauty in that? It's totally unattractive. It's like a dog or a cat marking his or her territory with it's pee, and it stinks as well.
Well, what is the answer? What are we willing to do? What does it take to see that our whole world, our country, our state, is in a true State of Emergency on all three counts? The Good, The Bad and The Ugly? Can you hear the music now? What about the whistle?
