    Eugene Lyons wrote about the realities of the idealistic notions of rags-to-riches. His life was riddled with hardship as he was growing up as an immigrant on the East Side of New York. In his essay, “Revolt against Ugliness,” Lyons spoke of how deep emotion feelings were invoked in people when they heard the stories of folks pulling themselves up by the bootstraps. He pointed out that the stories of success are not written by those who never get a leg up, but rather the “true or near true stories” are authored by the few and far between who make it out of poverty and hardship. The grim truth he spoke of was that even the youth had to work in order to help their family earn money for the bare necessities of food, shelter and clothing.

    Relke has all the praise for Livesay’s attempt to save ecological balance, when she remarks, “…neither the Wordsworths nor the Coleridges, the Lampmans nor the Carmans, have done anything to halt the attack on nature; the roar of cities has replaced their voices just as effectively as it has the Pioneer’s”(18). Those romantics sought refuge in nature’s lap away from hustle and bustle of cities, without any feeling to save or protect the gift of God to men. Long before the modern Century concept of ‘Sustainable Development’ was initiated by Livesay. Sustainability for humans means the capacity to endure and responsibility to manage the natural resources so as to maintain the diverse and productive biological system. If the resources are consumed thoughtlessly then nature will pose a challenge to living conditions.

    This photo still of Mrs. Potts and Chip from the 1991 film “Beauty and the Beast” represents the correlation between early childhood and animism. During early childhood, it is common for children to think objects have the ability to become alive and take on human characteristics. In the film, “Beauty and the Beast” many natural objects are brought to life and given the opportunity to take on human qualities.

A great example of how it’s easy for a child to think of objects as alive is the mother (Mrs. Potts) and son (Chip) duo in the movie.
