Earth Day 2017

This Earth Day, more than ever, should be a warning to us all.  We absolutely need to protect our planet and convince those who wish to destroy her, and are the powers that be, to change their thinking.  How do we do that?  We feel so helpless in the effort.  For me, I can only honor the earth in the space that I live.

Hope my little abstracts speak to my love of our values and wishes for the years to come

The "Ode to Joy" melody by Beethoven, the official anthem of the European Union, also is performed on the Earth Day. Lyrics for the Earth Day Anthem set to "Ode to Joy" are as follows:

Joyful joyful we adore our Earth in all its wonderment

Simple gifts of nature that all join into a paradise 

          Now we must resolve to protect her

Show her our love throughout all time
With our gentle hand and touch

         We make our home a newborn world

Now we must resolve to protect her

          Show her our love throughout all time

With our gentle hand and touch

We make our home a newborn world
