"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

2015

It's a new year, last year was not great, it was not horrible, it just was..all about finishing my degree, getting ready for the next job adventure in my life. I started running on and off, still not even close to where I would like to be. Mim has been slowly growing up, not nearly as many arguments, but still some present. The end of the year found me in a tight financial situation because I purchased Mim's car and lesson learned, never again. Mim is thriving at her academics.Ve is nearly a tall as Mim, growing up but still some lying manages to work its way into her life, and she continues to be amazing at basketball. Tuki is getting bigger, smarter and more talented at whatever she tries.

I feel like I am really looking at my life this year and I don't like how I always seem isolated from many people even though my life had gone from one person to 4, so I need to really examine myself and figure what is it about me that keeps others away...what do I need to do so that others feel welcome in my life and that I am fun to be with......I am asking God for direction otherwise I will be all alone again after the girls are all grown and living their own lives...and it really is not that far away..maybe 9 years and that is as long as I have been a Mother, and it has gone quickly......

My health has been slow in returning, in the strength and energy department. I have not really lost weight but I have not gained any either. I need to examine my workouts more closely too, making sure that I do what I can to get back into shape close to my 40's.

What I hope for in 2015 are better family dynamics, more energy and a new job, not much :) and most importantly a closer walk with God.
