AN ECONOMY THE TWO FARMERS How we may behave
Once upon a time, there were two farmers. They both had a harvest and got paid.
The first farmer came home. He then invested the earnings to build a better barn; he improved the machine shed, he put money into civil engineering projects, and he had money left over that he used for restoration.
He also made plans, and showed them to the people. Many were even helpful, and they were glad.
Now the livestock had better housing and all the animals were healthy. The farm operators were happy. The machine shed was warm in the winter’s cold and the machinery was overhauled and readied for the next season. The civil engineering helped to reduce erosion and contain runoffs. The bridge and the roadway were well maintained. For restoration, he re-established some wetlands and he replanted trees.
Will he starve? no he has everything...

The second farmer came home. He then went to town; far off he went, to show off.
The barn was in disrepair, and the cattle did shiver. The operators where grumpy. The machine shed was cold and the machinery was old. On the land there was erosion; topsoil went, well, down the creek and into the stream. Run-off created pollution--which was not a solution.
The bridge nearly broke, and on the roadway things got stuck. And on the side of restoration, there was no recreation. Then he needed to seed more wild oats, and from the woods, he cut more lumber to pay for a plunder.
He too made plans, but he hid them, and only turned on the fan, was he mad?. The folks could not help, and they felt like they were in a can and were sad.
Will he starve? likely - then he has never enough...

The Bridge Community involvement
And then came the day where we needed a bridge.
So the Architect did design a Bridge for the People. He then gave the plan to the chief engineer, the craftsmen the townsfolk and any one between. Very many of the Folks did like the plan of the Bridge and decided to build that Bridge. Also the People could clearly see the benefit to the whole of their community.
So the time came as to set up for the project; crafts people, general labor, and others were hired including a teakettle carrier. The teakettle carrier was not college educated, yes he could hardly figure out five plus four. However his talent given to him was to make the best tea and serve the tea in the most spotlessly clean cups.
So as the days went on, the building of the bridge did commence and the chief engineer made progress inspections. Then he came up to a quarreling group, they were arguing about who was the greatest among them self’s. So the chief engineer made them to stop, He asked the arguers what about the tea being served: did the tea ever taste bad? Was your cup ever unclean? Then they were astonished, gazing on one and each other and they did not find an answer.
So the chief engineer did give them an explanation and he said; look that is the talent given to the teakettle carrier and he does his job for the benefit of all of us. I am the chief engineer and that is the talent given to me, however because I have received this talent I am obligated to be of help to all of you and therefore I thank every one of you for your contribution to achieve the benefit of the whole.
So then the argument did stop and the workmen went on with their assignment to bring the bridge to its completion.
So still later there was a flood, oh the stream was high, but the town’s folks were able to cross the rift in a safe manner. And now there were smiles on their faces as they did cross the bridge, remembering the statement of the chief engineer.

Our Life's Something to think about
Have you ever thought about our life, not to be sub-par?
Do you think what life's about; to seek the goal!
Oh; should we live a life of strive and immolation?
Or, should we live a life of peace; and not subjugate!
Have you ever thought of a coming end?
Do you think; I can build upon a mend!
Oh; should we miss the; seek of life and live, but covet to be par?
Or, should we be wise and not despise the given guide!
----
Our life's conduct; will determine the brought goal.
So; seek the way to gain and obtain life and live.
Our life; so beset with strive and immolation will not lead to life.
So; abhor strive now, seek tranquility, seek life and live to obligate.
Our current life will arrive at an end.
So; find the provided mend with not an end and live.
Our given life; does not need the swiping strife or the neighbors bowl.
So; think and choose life and don’t miss the given guide.

Hydrant Some political statements and consequences
And then there is a house in the land, a trainer to teach a dog called woof, a people’s hydrant and a stock of shiny bushes in this case.
And so the trainer said to the dog woof, do you wane go for a walk, a talk? Clean air today or maybe not; do you wane sniff and well, agree?
- - -
And so they went and got to the peoples hydrant and the stock of the shiny bushes. Woof-woof, sniff-sniff, woof-woof, it smells icky.
And then the dog woof did greet the people’s hydrant with a squirt as if the people’s hydrant would need liquid in and out.
- - -
And so the trainer did ask the dog woof, what about the shiny bushes? Woof, barf, nay, I don’t wane catch the shock’s market’s germ.
And so the shiny bushes looked on, but do they have a clue? Or perhaps they know and got their own hidden chart to make as thwart!
- - -
And then in the land there was a fire. The trainer screamed, fire-fire, can you see that mire?
And now, woof the dog, he looked and thought a minute, a squirt from me? Woof that is too much for me.
- - -
And then all of a sudden the peoples hydrant made announcement; turn me on - turn me on he cried I got flow and much behind me, we got the mass.
And now the shiny bushes, their branches - twigs are shaking, the leaves are fluttering in the dusty and polluted wind and their whisper and quagmire is, why should we care? They did not vote for us and so is the pass.
- - -
So then dog woof, what do you wana now to do next in this text? Woof – woof, I wana go to the house n hope to catch a bone to chew. You know, I greeted the hydrant; I made the sniff, the walk the talk, now this is my case.
And so you - trainer with the house in the land, I got trained; I did walk the talk the sniff, so now do you agree?
