4 Observations (from Others)

Walk; walk or wheel yourself outside if you can; seek out green, where furred or feathered things might be.

-- Emma Mitchell


To be alive is to look up at the stars on a dark night and to feel the beyond-words awe of space in its vastness. To be alive is to look down from a mountaintop on a bright, clear day and to feel the wonder that can only be expressed in “oh” or “wow” or maybe “hallelujah.”

-- Brian McLaren


One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.

-- William Shakespeare



If we are to leave a beautiful world for you and your grandchildren, we have to take seriously the fact that creation does not belong to us; we are part of creation. We cannot do what we like with earth, water, and other human beings. God expects us to keep the earth in good condition. 

-- Mercy Oduyoye
