Happy Earth Day!
"Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul."
John Muir
"Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realize we cannot eat money."
-- Cree Indian Proverb
I remember the first one well in 1970, my senior year. They let us out of school that afternoon and we picked up litter around town. Then we had a celebration for old Gaia. Great fun.
Earth Day is a day that is intended to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's natural environment. Earth Day was founded by United States Senator Gaylord Nelson as an environmental teach-in first held on April 22, 1970. While this first Earth Day was focused on the United States, an organization launched by Denis Hayes, who was the original national coordinator in 1970, took it international in 1990 and organized events in 141 nations. Earth Day is now celebrated in more than 175 countries every year.
I admire, support and greatly appreciate the portions of our precious planet that we have protected for future generations to enjoy, like this view of Mt. Rainier capturing the first light on another glorious day.
Thanks for the taking a look, and protecting and celebrating our home.

Today is National Earth Day.
Everyone can make a difference. Plant a tree, start a garden (even in a container), clean up the beach or take a walk in the woods. Celebrate all that mother earth offers us every day! Here are my Lady Slippers coming up through the dirt/earth.
..e nulla sarà come prima. Vogliamoci bene💕
(Il traghetto si è fermato a Patmos per 5 ore nel 1990, dal piccolo porticciolo ho visto la piccola Grotta Sacra dove l'Apostolo Giovanni ha scritto l'Apocalisse era li in alto a sinistra, il piccolo gruppo di Avventure nel Mondo mi ha aspettato, ero solo, con i miei perchè, le mie emozioni🙏)
„Maria! Maria! Maria! Maria! Maria! Maria! | Dolce è la sera e vive le stelle brillano | nel mare, e un vento smuove i rami secolari | degli eucalipti. Tutto è pace e un pastore | sale con le capre, mi saluta e sorride. | Chora in alto, nel suo monastero antico, | con le sue bianche case, isola e sigilla | un segreto che porto per sempre nel cuore. | Il vento ora tace. Sono solo, è vero, | così doveva essere, mi dico. D'improvviso, | un lampo squarcia il cielo. Nel silenzio | della cupa grotta dell'Apocalisse, odo un dialogo, | rivivo una domanda di Giovanni alla madre di Dio.“ — Giuseppe Ungaretti poeta italiano 1888 - 1970 da Salire costa Source: Citato in Elio Fiore, In purissimo azzurro, Garzanti, 1986.
Dear Friend,
Stand Tall and Proud
Sink your roots deeply into the Earth
Reflect the light of a greater source
Think long term
Go out on a limb
Remember your place among all living beings
Embrace with joy the changing seasons
For each yields its own abundance
The Energy and Birth of Spring
The Growth and Contentment of Summer
The Wisdom to let go of leaves in the Fall
The Rest and Quiet Renewal of Winter
Feel the wind and the sun
And delight in their presence
Look up at the moon that shines down upon you
And the mystery of the stars at night.
Seek nourishment from the good things in life
Simple pleasures
Earth, fresh air, light
Be content with your natural beauty
Drink plenty of water
Let your limbs sway and dance in the breezes
Be flexible
Remember your roots
Enjoy the view!
