"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

Ve is playing

soccer again. So each girl has her sport. Ve loves any that is competitive and has a ball involved, Tuks loves any (few) that have no contact involved.
It took me awhile to convince Ve to play a sport she liked without Tuks involved, simply because she copies nearly everything Tuks does. I believe it is due to Ve's low confidence level. So playing by herself to help her discover her own gifts is a really good thing.

heading for the ball, she became much more aggressive at getting to the ball by the end of the game
