Today, I promise to keep my spaces clean and my environment cleaner.

I want us to read this in future time and remember all the senses and views we witnessed.

It’s never too late to make a difference. Our actions have very real consequences. We can educate ourselves, learn from our mistakes, and take action. We can hold companies like big oil and big plastic accountable for their negative impacts on the environment. We can educate ourselves and others about what causes climate change and what actions we as individuals can take to lower our carbon footprints.

I think a lot about where the right place to live is.

It is today on March 6th, 2017 that you have made the decision to make a difference in this world.

While I will work my hardest to create any positive change I can, you must continue this quest. You cannot give up hope, and you must always remember that the beauty on this Earth is worth saving.

I also hope that your previous prayers have been answered. The way you wanted to create green jobs for your fellow city dwellers have been fulfilled already.

I want you to only see the beauty in this world; there is so much of it and I will protect this beauty for as long as I am here on this Earth.

I am sitting in a classroom thinking about you. Which is rare for me. I hope that our family has taken some initiative to do something about changing society instead of building robots and large houses.

My own curiosity and knowing what a caring, aware young woman you are help me override despair.

But being truthful, I know we are not yet on the path that will lead to the change that is needed; but it is visible.

We want your future family to enjoy the same beautiful places we enjoyed.
