Earth Day Every Day

As I stood on my balcony this morning, 4.22.2016, a day we have designated as Earth Day, with sunflower seeds in one hand as an offering to the chickadees and my coffee in the other I was declaring my love and sending my blessings to our dear mother earth. The thought slipped into my mind, " you are so important to us Mother". But I almost choked on my coffee when I realized what I had thought. Earth is not just important to us, Earth is essential to us, without her there would be no us. I urge us all to remember this. When we without thought toss a piece of garbage we are throwing it onto our mother. When we care for an animal or admire a bird we are admiring our earth Mother. It is all one system of which we are an integral part. In our free will we have been allowed to forget this. Let this be our remembrance not only today but each day. We are part of this earth. Every day of our lives is Earth Day. Blessed be.
