What Money Can Do

I had to do a job that was pretty much against my environmental principles.

Most neighbours said the same thing sighing, dropping their arms down.
"How could anyone built something so ugly in our countryside… disfiguring
the whole hill top?" 

All the properties around are very old but well maintained traditional country 
houses with colourful gardens and growing families. "How could anyone?"

Possibly… where they built it was more controversial.

TY both!

lies. How could anyone?

"Why didn't you refuse the job if you feel that strongly about it being at odds
with your principles?" I was asked.

There was a dilemma for sure but…
    I was not aware of that construction project 
    I would have supported the locals before the first shovel
    I am very seriously affected by the actual pandemic consequences

Refusing the job once the building is standing would not change anything and,
like you, I have to make a living in these hard times.

Yes, ironic what money can do… or lack of it!
