"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
So the students selected to be a famous person in their 3rd grade wax museums from a list provided. The older black women on the list were Rosa Parks and Hariet Tubman, but Ve didn't want to dress as an old woman or a black woman, so Princess (white Kate it was) I would like to suggest to the teachers to allow for more modern strong young black women so the young black woman of today will want to pick them...like say Michelle Obama or Oprah, or Rhianna, or say Beyonce anyone of those would have been better since there was a Taylor Swift, Kate Middleton, etc. But I haven't figured how do it yet without offending anyone..so here is Kate, if you touch her she will come to life and tell you about her life.
