"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

Health Update

My total thyroid is 2.60 meaning still too high, my wellness docs are shooting for a number in the 1.00 range, so my thyroid medicine ARMOUR was upped to 105 mcg. I had told my sister who is having the same issue as me with her thyroid that I felt my numbers are better because of my improved energy and a wiggle on the weight loss, but I had predicted it was still too high and I was correct, proving patients are usually correct in how they are feeling, thus once again emphasizing to me that we need to be our own advocates. Remember me fighting for this years ago when I was first diagnosed but the docs (different ones) said having a number in the 3.00 range was normal, but everything I read stated otherwise, and I never lost weight or felt any better, and then I got side tracked with all this cancer and stuff, but now I am back onto my thyroid and I have found the right doctors (my lyme doc)...I knew they were the right ones because they are the ones who told me that they wanted my numbers in the 1.00 range, I didn't have to fight for it.....so still on the road to health improvement...
