Emotion 365: The Land of Uplifting, the Capitol Prepared

Rope ladders rise to the land of Uplifting. People climb and climb until finally they begin to feel themselves rise. Then they let go and float the rest of the way to Uplifting in the clouds near the sun. Uplifting glows a sunrise pink. The people wear clouds. They drink cloud wine and eat cloud berries. They peer through time scopes and look for the downtrodden. Then the cast down their cloud ropes saying, “Climb up and join us for a time!” 

In Uplifting everything looks better and troubles melt. Visitors return to whence they came with lightened hearts. 

"I loved the cloud sheep,” says Miss Doe Friend, who missed her lover Alobar just a bit less in Uplifting.

The Time Scopes watch the surface from the capitol Prepared, where the denizens take their duties seriously and rise at dawn for stretching exercises. Then they blink quickly to sharpen their eyesight and peer through the telescopes to spot the people most in need. In an emergency, the eagle-like Preparitons swoop down to uplift a sad soul, but they are not angels. At noon, they break to eat cloud berries and then they walk or fly along the cloud paths to regain their focus. They spend the afternoon at work and in the evening sleep lightly on cloud outposts ready to awake if needed. They dream of tomorrow’s work and what they must do. “We help as many as we can,” says the Eagle Prepared.
