Today is earth day, something I have mixed feelings about. There are many wonderful things about raising awareness and joining activities that build community. The same goes for various other days of the year that involve various social and medical causes.

every day should be earth day!

Our planet and resources are finite. Clean air, water and food are something we deserve and should consider every day. Just like the “pleasantries” at Christmas time, it is important to move beyond a one day or one week celebration.

Taking the time throughout the year will make a greater difference in the long run.

In the meantime…earth day has an amazing capacity as a catalyst for change. It brings over 190 countries together with 1 billion active participants.

that’s huge!

What a wonderful thing when the world becomes one, like it is meant to be. People all over the world connecting because of a common concern instead of our differences. We are all the same…yet different and earth day allows us to embrace all the important things.

Let’s remember that throughout the year as we interact with mother earth and the people around us.

Peace & Happy Earth Day.
