One of the qualities of loving and caring for self and others includes respect and consideration for the Planet that provides a place for life to flourish. It is a gift. As with any treasure we receive there is responsibility attached to the prize.

As I nurture a garden or seedlings sprouting from the ground, I reap the rewards of beauty, oxygen and thankfulness for growing and nourishing life itself.

There is a symbiotic relationship between mother nature and human beings. If we are destructive and careless to the environment we chip away at our own well-being and Source of sustaining life.

Do what you can to love, appreciate and be thankful for the planet, providing us an exceptionally beautiful home. Recycle plastic at least. Most communities and towns have recycle facilities for ease and accessibility to collect and reprocess items we would ordinarily toss in the garbage. The use of these neighborhood recycle centers are free for people to use. 

In affirmation: I am abundantly grateful for planet Earth and the astounding beauty yet delicate balance of inhabitable and sustainable life she offers us. It has a price and it is our response of gratitude to provide care, love and provision to keep the Earth healthy and habitable for human life to thrive.

Thank you Source of life for a place to live and grow physically, intelligently and in understanding of the process of life itself. Nature informs, heals and provides for living things ceaselessly. I pay it forward and give utmost care to the fragile equilibrium of planet health and wholeness. Thank you Mother Earth, Amen.
