Mother Nature must hate us.

The thought passes through my mind as I am skimming the morning paper.

Droughts. Earthquakes. Fires. Floods. Hurricanes. Tornadoes.

Destruction.

Death.

But. who would dare to blame the mother of the earth? After all, her inhabitants raped her of her pride and beauty. Man used her resources for personal gain, not for the benefit of mankind.

Perhaps, in pain, Mother Nature is simply striking back at the human race with vengeance.
