Feel her strength...

A friend introduced me to this magnificent being during a retreat. You will see more pictures of her. Enjoy her beauty and feel her strength. What power and long standing witness to the process of life!

Thank you..

It's been a busy couple of weeks..and things are coming together well. As usual the beauty of Mother Earth calms my spirit and warms my heart. Thank you dear Mother. More and more of your family are awakening to your needs and the extent of your pain.

Who will speak?

I was just reading that new chemicals are being used to try and stem the flow of oil from the oil spill. The impact of these chemicals on water and sea life is being monitored but largely unknown at this time!! How sad that sister water and all life living within her are treated as experiments with unknown consequences. The ray of hope is that more and more of our human family are raising their voices on behalf of Mother Earth. Now is the time, like never before, to speak and to act!

Valued or Used!!

How much more can Mother Earth endure before we stop taking Her for granted? We have been given a priceless gift! Will we treat her like the jewel she is or take the consequences of using her as an exploitable resource?

The choice is ours...?

Thomas Berry's words speak clearly of the choices facing us! " All human institutions, programs and activities must now be judged by the extent to which they inhibit, ignore or foster a mutually enhancing human-Earth relationship."

One of my pleasures!!

Enjoying the beauty of Mother Earth at The Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming!! I was absolutely thrilled when I saw the print of this picture. It seemed to capture even more than what I had focused on..!! Thank you Mystery of Life.

Key question..?

What brings you pleasure? Take 15 minutes and write about what brings you pleasure. Then ask yourself, when was the last time you did any or all of the pleasures you wrote about? I did this exercise as a participant in a woman's healthy eating class last year, and I was surprised and challenged.
