Oxygen is their gift to us. And all we have to do to receive their gift is plant a seed and make sure it gets enough water and sunshine. That's the least we can do for them. Trees ask so little, but give us so much—the divine breath that sustains us all. Without them we would all die.
So my solution is if ever I'm President will be the following: Make every house, apartment, office building, and even industrial complex grow at least one tree right in the middle of their living room or office. Its roots will have to be planted in the ground and watered daily. Now for the exciting part, a large hole at least 20 feet wide must be made in the roof. That opening will serve three purposes. First, it will give your pet tree room to grow and expand. Second, it will allow in the rain and sunshine. And third, it will provide you with a view of God's miraculous sky.
By now you're probably in your “Question the Birdbrain Dodo Mode” and wondering what to do about the rain or snow in your home or office. The answer is obvious—you do nothing. Just sit back and enjoy the great outdoors, indoors with your kids. You get the best of both worlds. Outdoors is indoors and indoors is outdoors. Get it? But the best part is, instead of watching your grass grow, you can watch your tree mature. All the while you and your family will be inhaling your pet tree's most precious product, life-giving oxygen.
But let's get back to the hole in your roof again. You can always think of that hole in your roof just like the one in your head cuz that's what you have if you're listening to a birdbrain of a Dodo like me. |
