Every Day Is Earth Day

Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet, and the winds long to play with your hair. -- Kahlil Gibran

Happy Earth Day 2012!!!

What are your plans to celebrate our beautiful earth today?! Troy is out helping with the bike race that is going through town and when he comes back, we plan on going for a run before we head out for a glorious day of hiking!

Troy took this picture a few years ago of Tiger Creek, where we will be spending our day today. LOVE!

Earth Day is about trying to spread attention to environmental education in hopes to implement long-ignored solutions to environmental problems. Education is key, yes and whoever said that ignorance is bliss...well, I just do not agree at all. I am of the mindset that I want to be informed because it is truly the only way to fight and make a difference.

I won't go on and on preaching about how our beautiful earth is in jeopardy, how so many creatures on earth are seriously declining, or how our food supply is actually experiencing a shortage. Nope! Not me! You will get plenty of that all over the place today. *as you should!*

Instead I will just ask you (sweetly of course) to log off your computers, turn off your tv, grab your loved ones and go enjoy our beautiful world even if it is just for a few hours. It is truly a glorious world out there, let's enjoy it!

                                    Show compassion, for the world belongs to ALL of us. <3


We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.
