"We lose our souls if we lose the experience of the forest, the butterflies, the song of the birds, if we can't see the stars at night. It's not just pollution of the air, or toxicity of the planet, or loss of jobs. It's a loss of soul, of imagination, of the experience of what it is to be a human being. There is nothing to live for if we eliminate these, because we lose everything.
We lose our souls."
~Thomas Berry (Dreams of the Earth)
Today is Earth Day.
I call upon everyone to Honor the Earth Mother, Gaia.
Go outside and feel the sun or rain on your skin. Walk barefoot in her new, cool, green grass. Soak in the beauty of her flowering forsythia, daffodils and grape hyacinths.
Plant a tree. Grow your own vegetables. Start a compost.
Take a walk or simply sit quietly
and allow your Divine Spirit to flow with that of the Earth Mother.
I wish you Peace and Joy!
With Love,
~Jennifer
