A Conscious Effort
cause: ECO-WELFARE
now benefiting: Greenpeace, USA
This piece was inspired by the ironic
nature of contrast. The background is a camouflage pattern, designed to
simulate natural surroundings. It is often employed by hunters and the
military to serve a purpose usually associated with deception and violence.
Superimposing the camouflage is
a small conscientious figure representing the individual whose remorseless
labor conquers all. His victorious effort ushers in an enormous symbol
of peace. Both the figure and the symbol appear in fluorescent colors,
advertently attracting attention to this conscious effort.
Willpower
Imagine you're an orchestra
leader
Bringing all your qualities into play.
Imagine generating melody
Every minute of the day
Accomplishing the things you have to do
Those you love the most and least, too...
Imagine climbing a mountain
Bearing the burdens of the day.
Imagine making progress
Every inch along the way
Climbing up the incline till you view
At last those deeds accomplished that you drew
Upon the board of vision
When you devised from the means an end
To realizing
And began against resistance to contend,
And through your course of action you'll come to
Know that a conscious effort makes a dream come true
And gives life a purpose
A day significance and gleam
A joy spark and ignition
Energy and ambition to perform
Unlocking the key to every door
To self-respect, achievement, and much more
Wielding purchase power
To attain the best life has in store,
For your imagination
The reality that you fashion
The brainchild of your passion
Is the power of your will.
Willpower! |
