"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
A note to remember due to the extreme cold..-40 to -50 these last two days and 2 weeks ago, students have not had a full week of school since the week before Christmas...hard to believe.
Smurph had another seizure yesterday, he now has limited use of his back legs. The vet thinks a blood clot moved during the seizure. His heart sounds fine so blood was drawn and they will let me know later today as to what is going on. Apparently it is not good if they begin to seizure after they are 5 years old, and he is and the vet isn't sure if his back end weakness will recover...so we wait.
I have also turned down our house temp to 60 to help us from using up the 300 gallons of LP we have left before it warms up..wish us luck!!
