Elise Sarkis-Talj Draw Me a Fish

Annotation

The world was falling into a downward spiral and there seemed to be no stopping to it. The news was bad on TV and the radio all the time. People from the city were getting sicker and sicker with illnesses that didn't have a name yet.Needless to say that the village's infrastructure could not bear the load of more new arrivals. The fresh settlers were using the lake as, a public swimming pool, a bathtub and as a washroom, and the streets as a playground for their children.Does this image stir some odd feelings inside of you?Do you believe that we can just sit back and let go?Well, I don't!What about another chance to turn the odds towards a better tomorrow, one that resembles our children books' images, a place where it is still possible to dream of pink clouds in a blue sky.What about teaching our children to do so, in an easy and smooth way. If we start today, before tomorrow, we have better chances to make that dream come true.
