"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

Skating is over

but soccer for Ve and Tuki and track for Mim has begun. Mim won the open 400 at last night's meet and would have won the open 200 if she had taken off immediately when the gun went off. Tuki is actually playing soccer this year rather than picking dandelions like she did several years ago and Ve is learning to play positions and that frustrates her because she can't be with the ball at all times which is what she loves....oh well, it is rough growing up.

I planted another 3 flats of vegetable seeds for the garden, we went for our family bike ride tonight and get this, I actually ran this morning...and it felt GREAT, fat and all, after attempting it about a year ago, but I pushed too hard and messed up my feet again, but since I have been working out for the last 8 months, my cardiovascular strength is good so I can keep track of how far I can push my feet without messing them up again.....I swear I'll back to my running yet, even if it kills me..just kidding
