Nature Journal 5

It is minute one, and to me it has been the longest minute of my entire life. The great volcanic eruption has just occurred ending the time of the dinosaurs era. As the air is filled with smog and dust, shiny particles of some sort are blending with the ground causing it to form new pavement. The sky is now blue once again filled with new species of birds and flying insects. The grass is so beautiful and refreshing. The lake nearby draws all of the animals to it making this land of use once again.

To the next minute I go as I see the first pilgrims arrive wearing funny clothing and speaking unfamiliar languages. In these times people loved nature for what it was and tried to protect it by keeping things fresh and plant life growing. Then here comes evil men on their horses burning their homes destroying the land and taking people as slaves. The land has to grow once again thanks to the evil spirits who forgot why we are here for. The land is beautiful again hidden from the rest of the world until it is time for history to be changed again. He has now arrived The Great Christopher Columbus has found what the rest of the world has not been able to see other life.

In the halfway point minute three, is the time of revolution. For decades now the land has been fought over with swords, guns, and massive cannons. The world is greedy and nature has no way to help it. After each battle the land takes a different shape as well as new look. Technology is advancing each and every moment, buildings are being built and land being destroyed for other use. Some plants have become extinct things to the touch from men. The nights are not quite anymore, the streets are filled with movers and thieves.

Where has all the time gone. It is minute four and I can here the trains coming from the south filled with slaves from the south trying to escape from hell. I can see them as they sprint through the woods drinking from the creek and eating the fresh fruit of the farmers land. Thanks to man great leaders who sacrificed their lives those days are gone. Now it is the time of the roaring 1920’s filled with characters from The Great Gatsby. It is just like he said it people had no idea of the American Dream. The Dream was being lost away by the way they treated others as well as the land. Now The Great Depression has changed all of that. From afar I see a paper soaring through the air saying Hoover Ville. For a second I forgot that I was still standing here.

The last minute I saw children turn into men and woman turn into voters in the blink of an eye. Wars came and many lives were taken. But with that came a new beginning. The world has evolved so much from ancient times. The land has seen many faces and many special nights. After all that it is still here. Americans were getting smarter and life was growing once again. I see the completion of the Devault Alumni Center and the new look of a sacred location. Here I stand at the belly of the beast not knowing what it might show me next. Only I know its true powers. But we all have the power to keep the land protected. When nature calls what will we do then. Our times have passed like rain on the mountains. The time of nature revolution is now.
