Mountains

we’re just like mountains, we grow over time little by little over the year. We start as a pile of dirt , and then an earthquake comes and doubles the height of the hill making it a mountain, we grow and may be a bit janky and see the world in black and white but over time we smooth over and start to see all the shades of grey. We don’t even know it but we have thousands if not millions of things going on around us, and just like a mountain were to focused on growing and becoming as tall as we can get that we don’t see a squirrel climb a tree or a gopher running to his hole. Like a mountain we stand tall and never move, we only stare straight forward, and we don’t realize the things happening around us. We don’t see the destruction of the ocean life due to what we’ve done, we don’t see the destruction of our icecaps due to pollution and climate change, because were to focused on getting bigger, and we only focus on what makes us bigger, not on the actions of our consequences. When we get tall enough we see the world in black, white and all the shades of grey but we decide to ignore the grey, because we only focus on what makes us bigger.
