These are three<\/p>\n<p>of my favorite things about life and living and love.<\/p>\n<p>The first of the three are the stars that bring us light at night<\/p>\n<p>when earths lights have gone out. And the brightest star<\/p>\n<p>the sun of course thats very important to all of us<\/p>\n<p>the sun brings the day light that separates the night.<\/p>\n<p>It also brings the warmth on spring days and hot days<\/p>\n<p>of summer.<\/p>\n<p>My next favorite thing is my love the trees and trees<\/p>\n<p>are an especially favorite. They work to keep us cool<\/p>\n<p>during summer by giving us plenty of shade. They keep<\/p>\n<p>the pavement cool, and the sidewalks and streets too<\/p>\n<p>and the same for parking lots. Those trees are earths<\/p>\n<p>natural climate controls.<\/p>\n<p>Last but not least of three of my favorite things is<\/p>\n<p>water my favorite beverage. Water is good for<\/p>\n<p>hydration of our bodies as well as helping to<\/p>\n<p>rid our bodies of waste. Water is a lubricant<\/p>\n<p>for our joints that help to give us movement. Something<\/p>\n<p>else about water it\u2019s great for swimming and even other<\/p>\n<p>sports. So there you have it the importance of three<\/p>\n<p>things that some may take for granted. Think of<\/p>\n<p>trees, and stars, and water more often and know<\/p>\n<p>they are important to this earth.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So many things we take for granted here I will name a few.
