"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

SKEETERS BE GONE!!

Even I have to admit, nature lover, everything has a purpose, they are food for birds, koombuyah..........that, THE SKEETERS ARE REALLY BAD THIS YEAR!!!! worse than they have been in years, and in our property it is even more difficult to enjoy nature since we have a mosquito nursery in the back woods (bottomland woods, standing, quiet water all the time this year)

it makes it hard to even enjoy the out of doors. They follow us and the dogs around like a thick dark cloud of doom. There are many, they are hungry and they are fast. I usually don't even notice their presence, but right now I have to say SKEETERS BE GONE!!!

I explained a little about the mosquito's life history to the girls awhile back and now they keep saying something to the effect of "I don't want them sucking my blood" me either girls, me either!!!!!
