"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
Basketball season is officially over, Mim has continued to improve but she will still need to make a HUGE leap of improvement to make the 10th grade team next year.
This is the area I dislike about basketball, it is an elitist sport in of itself since the teams are so small and you have to be really good to still be playing by the time you are in high school.
Mim loves the sport so I will do what I can to help her make up for lost time.
Ve's HOOPS team took second place in today's tourney, so for playing for the 1st season her team sure racked up the hardware...
I credit this to the coaches and thank goodness she will have these same coaches for the next 5 years.
Ve receiving her trophy today-I actually remembered the camera today.
