With all the turmoil reported in the news about contentious
debates, random shootings on the streets, in the malls and schools, threats of nuclear
missiles targeting the United States from North Korea, and a world in chaos, I
need to find some peace and get centered again. I don’t want to fall into this
negative vortex of mounting upheaval and despair.
So, I have been going to my Pinterest Cave to regain my calm
and search for wisdom. I found this quote from the Native American, Chief
Seattle:
“All things share the same breath, the beast, the tree, the
man. The air shares its spirit with all the life it supports.”
This quote helps to remind me that all living things are
connected. We need to take care of one another and protect all other living
things because we are interdependent. What happens to one thing will affect the
others. Mother Earth isn’t just a planet flying around in space. It is our home
and it is unique because it contains something precious—life.
And that is the end of my sermon. I hope you all have a
peaceful, loving day. Oh. One more thing. Spring is on the way. Just sayin’…
