trash: something worth little or
nothing; things that are no longer
useful or wanted and that have
been thrown away; junk, rubbish
Living where we do, I see trash
by the side of the road marked
free. I'm reminded of that old
proverb, "One man's trash is
another man's treasure."
I like it! A lot easier than putting
together a garage sale. The trash
man doesn't have to pick it up
and someone gets something
they can use.
On the news, I see images of
what's going on in lands afar.
In my heart of hearts, I just
know they could live on what
this affluent nation discards.
Something to think about.
Obviously, we're not going
to solve our trash issues here.
Still, methinks we should each
give some thought to what we
are discarding.
Is this still good? Could it be
of use to someone? Is this
something I could donate to the
Goodwill or some other charity?
And not to forget, there's always
the side of the road . . .
