Today of all days let us consider who we are in relation to the earth. Let us take the time to consider that we are all connected through the earth and to each other. We are all a part of this lovely earth, and no matter how hard we might want to separate ourselves from this reality, the truth remains that we are of the earth. Today, let us take a moment from our busy lives and consider how the earth is the foundation of the life we live. Consider the plants that grow from the soil, and how they sustain us not only with the food we eat, but with the air we breathe. Consider the water of this planet, and how without clean fresh water we would not exist. Consider the water systems themselves and how beautiful they work. Think about all the other creatures with whom we share this earth. Many of these creatures bring us joy and help. Let us consider our fellow humans who are as much a part of this planet as we are. Let us consider how we are all interconnected through this earth. We get but one planet to live on. We should treat the earth with kindness and respect.
On this Earth Day, let us also consider that with life there is death. Take the time to remind ourselves of this truth. Research and consider how you wish your final acts on this earth to reflect your love and respect for our earth. Many of us have a hard time accepting that we and our loved ones will one day die. So far it looks like all of us are part of this cycle of life and death. We live and we die. Let us today consider how we will best care for the earth in our death.
