Comment from Kimberly: The dolphin sighting reminds me of the idea that…It is frustrating to see nature harmed, and trees chopped down to build parking lots, factories, and houses. Though…nature is resilient. And, life happens in cycles. So, there is always hope for pavement to crumble and the grass and tress to grow back. Think of that whenever you look at a Walmart! And, think of the fact that lots of dolphins could someday come back to and hang out in our waters if we work on the environment and strive to be more sustainable.
