"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
...all last week and now this week. We had back to school night last night so we were at school very late. I am amazed as to how tired I get even though I never really take a break all summer. I think it is different kind of tired, emotional and mental exhaustion and then the hard floors don't make my feet feel great, so it tires out my whole body. We are still walking the dogs 2 miles every night but I have not been running.....I know I am not proud but at least we have been dedicated to walk the dogs..better than what we did a year ago. Hopefully I will work up to a more active life style again..like years ago.
