"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

Male Bonding Weekend

Friday night Kiki (Tuks word for E's name) and neighbor A spent quality time with Tuks, and then Saturday, C, co-worker and friend took Tuks and me to a nearby town to look at paintings at his parent's home, and then this morning Tuks went for a tractor ride with uncle W while he was discing the field and tonight she went four-wheeling with uncle J and cousin N. It was a weekend of male bonding. She enjoys spending time with her guy buddies and it makes me glad to see her so happy.
