The Man Who Planted Trees Q#2

 The man who planted trees was my favorite film shown during this past section of class, even more than the pixar shorts! Crazy I know! Normally I dislike this style of animation but it was done so well that I can't complain.  This film spoke to me about the power of one man and his diligence to his task. The man planted trees through two world wars and never stopped to bother about what was going on outside of his task. He kept his nose down and produced one of the single most magnificent man made marvels (I just put five "M" words in a row. Booo Yaa!) ever known in my opinion. I wish this was based on a true story. The world was completely upturned and crazy but he just planted trees and did more good for the world than any war could ever accomplish. If we all focused on what we can do to help the world through our actions and diligently performed that task, then I don't see how that could have any negative side effects.
