INTRODUCING: The Incredible Journey of a Water Sprite with Roots on Earth Day, April 22, 2019
"Young people: They care. They know that this is the world that they're going to grow up in, that they're going to spend the rest of their lives in. But, I think it's more idealistic than that. They actually believe that humanity, human species, has no right to destroy and despoil regardless.” Sir David Attenborough
There are many reasons for writing this Water Sprite with Roots story on his journey to find Cyclical Truths especially on Earth Day in honor of this "blue speck" in the universe.
In the nebulous world where the difference between the real
and the imagined is only a matter of perception and preference and in what
direction the sun's beams are slanting and in what direction the shadows are falling,
there is cast into the atmosphere a young water sprite to begin his cyclical
journey in one of the Earth's most essential cycles. He takes this undertaking
very seriously and calls it his mission of Cyclical Truths. His accounts and
feelings set a purpose and demand for morality for all generations in
preservation of a finite planet.
His short name is Corddo-mont, and he personifies the most
valuable, but limited resource, known as pure, fresh water. He is unique because he is also part plant with
retractable roots and cellular chloroplasts with which to make his own food
from the sun's energy. This gives him a
unique perspective on the symbiotic interdependence among plants, animals and
even micro-organisms at the four important levels of healthy ecosystems..
He is young, ebullient and curious with an attendant sense
of humor and freshness of experience. Along
the way, he encounters various experiences that impress him with a number of
cycles that describe the cooperative natural world where everything has a
purpose and a right to exist to maintain potential. In fact, he won't admit it, but he has formed
a close bond with a special micro-organism known as a rotifer.
He becomes more aware of his vitality as he
learns about the difficulties that threaten and exploit his nature; even to
become an agent of pollution to gravely affect the myriads of life-forms that
rely on his solubility factor and all-embracing sustenance. A unique encounter impresses him with the most
abundant carbon element found in all organic matter including the hydrocarbons
in fossil fuels.
It is only with his
encounters with humankinds that he feels a loss of self; and learns consciously,sometimes painfully, the truth of the need for conservation and preservation
of balance in nature.
This story combines imagination, fantasy with scientific
reality. The figurative language personifies the water sprite as a friend we
should all care about his manners, fears and hopes. Because he shares an affinity with any
organic life form derived from carbon and hydrogen, he can communicate with
other beings and express their stories from their realities. Most importantly, they
help explain the cyclical truths that are very real and essential to ecology
and the Earth's bio-systems.
It is important to introduce this valuable superhero water sprite
with roots on
Earth Day, April 22, 2019.
By relating to his journey, you will also relate to
Cyclical Truths and understand the confluences of Climate Change speeding out of control:
....The highest reliably recorded temperatures on Earth have
happened in the last couple of years. Temperatures have reached 129 degrees
(oven temperature) plus humidity. How can people work? What if “no-go zones”
continue for weeks on end? How will humans survive before forced migration?
...Climate change will have major and unpredictable effects on
the world's water systems, including an increase in floods and droughts, powerful
storms, and causing in turn, an impact on food supply, displacement and conflict.
...Polar ice is melting, coastlines are receding, rising sea
levels threaten entire nations on low-lying islands in the Pacific and
Indian Oceans, increasing ocean salinity, degrading the iconic Great Barrier Reef.
...Climate change is shifting the seasons with extreme weather
conditions such as precipitation patterns which will impact farming and agriculture, a
source of food and livelihood for more than half of the global population.
It is time to treat our Blue Planet with respect and spirit of Ecology where every community has a purpose, right to exist and maintain potential.
Check out this valuable story for all ages today.
Your comments are always welcome.

Excerpt: My thoughts wander about the kind of ecology that
humankinds believe in, as I have witnessed. Do they get it that natural life
begins with DNA in a nucleus, one celled animals and plants, then species and
then an ecosystem? Do they know that every small ecosystem is part of the total
large biosphere on Earth that connects them all; water, air, food, resources,
and shelter? Do they realize that perpetual growth, industry or destruction of
any habitat is not sustainable on a limited planet?
