Happy Earth Day!


I wanted to write something that inspires hope.
Everything I've watched lately has been anything but.
Melting glaciers, droughts, pollution, overpopulation, extinctions, water shortages and war. Yay!

I need hope. It keeps me going.

Some of the best thoughts on earth.

For starters.

I have to stop watching Frontline. It's never good news. I need good news. Why isn't there a major network that leads with something that doesn't bleed? I want to hear about people finding simple ways to deal with the issues that seem to plague us.
Like, laundry!

I found this site. I love recycling, especially when it's fun! Fashion sucks, style rules! Frankenstein clothes are the best.

Teaching our children how to live well and kind is also a kindness to Mother Earth.

Like I say. I must have hope and I need to share the virus. I'd like to think that I'm making a difference. Small ripples grow into big ones.

Peace, hope, justice, and well being for all.
