It's that simple. If you want something to be a certain way, change it. Do it. Be it.
Houston may not be
the healthiest city in the United States of America, but
we can change that. Only, WE can change that. We need to use our great parks (pictures below and right of
Hermann Park), demand public transit, encourage others to stop smoking, and make healthy choices.
