"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.

cucumbers starting to grow..we more than likely will be harvesting next week.This week we also have been eating a lot of lettuce.
Our week consisted of me attending 4 admin classes, the girls in their summer school classes and Mim continues to paint the basement..this week it finally felt like summer to me and I had a difficult time trying to stay engaged with my class work and the extra work I have been doing for my classroom next year. Two more weeks and off to Colorado I do for a STEM conference....yahoo!!!
