"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
as to how quickly this summer vacationing has taken hold of me this year. Every other year it has taken a week or so to reach the slow mo mode, but not this year. It has taken me about 1 1/2 days to get to the point where I have lost all sense of time and what day it is. Does this mean I am getting older or more adaptable?? It is such a new phenomena for me that I have noticed the difference. Mind you I am not complaining, but truly I am amazed............and liking it a WHOLE LOT TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
