Changes....

Our planet has always been in a state of flux and change. We were created in the midst of this change. The current changes can be quite unsettling for those of us who pay attention. I think that our lifestyles are in need of change, taking a serious look at the last 50 years of unrelenting 'taking' from the earth with not a thought of giving back has put us in a serious spiral...the direction is truly unknown.

I watched a short piece on PBS about how there is a 'spiral' of trash out in the Pacific Ocean that collects because of the currents. That each sea bird and turtle has a gut that is getting filled with plastic trash that cannot be digested or passed through the digestive system.

I do have the lifelong sense that it is important to GIVE back to those who give to us. Even if we are not sure who gave it, we can pass it on by doing "random acts of kindness". So I would urge you to think about how you can GIVE back to the earth what she has given to you.

THINK for this day about what the EARTH gives to you. Make a long list and take time to really reflect on what you can do. If you make 5 changes in your life that will give back to Mother Earth then you are starting an important part of the change that we want to BE.

Be Well, Mother Earth.
