"Let every individual and institution now think and act as a responsible trustee of Earth, seeking choices in ecology, economics and ethics that will provide a sustainable future, eliminate pollution, poverty and violence, awaken the wonder of life and foster peaceful progress in the human adventure."
- John McConnell, founder of International Earth Day

RIGHT NOW, and then again tomorrow and then again the next day and on it goes day after day,
1/2 OF THE WORLD lives on LESS THAN 2 DOLLARS each day.

Psalm 27:4
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Do all you can and don't worry about the odds against you. Wield the miracle of life's energy, never worrying whether we fail, concerned only that whether we fail or succeed we do so with all our might. That's all we need to know to feel certain that all our force of diligent effort is worth our while on Earth.
Carl Safina, Voyage of the Turtle

One of those days.


All is well on Haiti!!!! Thanks for the prayers.





It has been raining for two days straight in our neck of the woods. The dogs are getting restless since they usually spend between 6 - 7 hours in the outdoor pen. But, they don't like rain..yes I know they are spoiled, so they have been indoors more than out. Tuks is crabby because it is dark and gloomy, and she is adjusting to the new schedule, so she clings to my legs whenever the mood grabs her and well sMurph is just the same, yowling at me at all times, especially when we are sleeping.

So this morning, with all these warm bodies seeking my attention for some sort of relief of their perceived needs, I am getting ready for church. I am almost finished, dressed and groomed, and then I look in the mirror and there it is...a big glob of white toothpaste sitting on the chest of my clean and ironed shirt!!!! You know what I did, yep, I just washed it off, and went to church with a wet spot since I didn't want to start dressing all over again....it is just one of those days.
