"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
New Year goals continue to be the same as every year; and hopefully I get closer to it each new year!!!!!!!!
a. Work on raising mentally, spiritually and physically healthy daughters
b. Work on becoming a more mentally, spiritually and physically healthy person. Some areas need more work than others. LOL
c. Work on opening myself up to trusting and involving others in our lives more than I currently do
d. Continuing working on removing all debt except for my home mortgage.
e. Bringing my two girls home from Haiti, realistically I feel Panda will be home in 2008, but Cheetah not until 2009 (next year's goal)
Notice how easy and relaxed they are with each other, and they weren't even set up for a picture, they were just caught in the act of being kids. YEAH
