"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

Dichotomy of Emotions

I have nothing to say right now. I am so excited that a friend of mine is picking up her two daughters this very weekend. Yet I am am also so worried because one of the girls is a VERY good friend of Mims'. I hope she will be OK and I hope she is home soon.




jumping together last June.

Mim in yellow, the two sisters coming home in the blue shirt and pink shirt. The girl in the pink shirt is Mim's good friend. They were born in the same coastal town of Port Salut.

Where is Mim at right now, C? I mean her file?

Here's hoping she knows her turn will be coming up. Hopefully the two girls can get back in touch after Mim gets home! Webcams are awesome!

Tuks and Ve look great!

I love that picture of them together!
They were able to go back and say good-bye. I told W. we could talk on the phone when Mim gets home.

Really hope Mim is coping well with it and knows she'll be home soon!
