Well, I'd Say
That your mother is a very wise person... this makes an excellent point and statement of intense proportions
Everyone is sitting back, chilling, dealing, killing,
well whatever they're doing, (and not literally everyone)But enough to count-leaving the garbage and etc for someone else to deal with, because very few
people like to roll up the sleeves and stop up their noses and get the job done...too many are just sitting back, having Mac attacks, while the waste of the world
is stinking, no one really appears to want to touch some issues until they personally can no longer stand the smell, or in other words now the issue is smack dab in the middle of their yard, blocking their door and they can't get out, plus the smell is getting more intense, etc. Then they want ACTION, action starts
before the smell hits your nostils, it starts before the dynamite blows, etc..I could go on, but I won't.

this makes the reader really think hard.
