This post was inspired by a documentary I watched on PBS Wednesday night about Climate Change.

Since I bypassed Marketing for Romance Writers 52-Week Blog Challenge this week, I thought it fitting to share a couple of quotes for Earth Day since I missed the actual date:

“We each have a role to play in ensuring that we do not pass a world beyond repair on to our children. Everyone must do their part, and as long as we unite to protect the one planet we have, we can leave it in better shape for future generations. On Earth Day, let us all accept our individual responsibilities to care for the world we live in, and let us marshal our best efforts toward building a safer, more stable, and more sustainable world.” ~Barack Obama, 2016 April 21st, quoted from The White House Office of the Press Secretary

“Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realise we cannot eat money.” ~Cree Indian Proverb

Thanks for reading.

#StayHome. #StayWell.

The quotes were found on The Quote Garden.

13 Things I’m Absolutely Sure About, Thirteen on Thursday

Posted at 8:58 am by Mary J. McCoy-Dressel, on March 6, 2014

This idea originally came from a prompt I received in my email some time ago. The original prompt was for 10 things I’m absolutely sure about. Since it’s Thursday I am updating it a little and using it for my Thursday 13 this week.

Thirteen Things I’m Absolutely Certain About

1. God is real To me. This is my opinion, and it is my blog. (I don’t mean to be snarky.)

2. The sun rises every day (Even if you can’t see it behind the clouds.)

Lake Michigan Sunrise

3. The sun sets every day (Oh, yes so beautiful.)

4. The earth is round

5. What goes up usually comes down (Usually)

6. Rain helps make grass a rich green in color (I may never see it until August this year.)7. Murphy’s Law exists This needs to be in capital letters.

8. My dog loves me ❤ (Aww, I love her too! Soooo much.)

9. I need to write

10. I love chocolate and music.

11. I will kill a Christmas Cactus before it blooms (Not on purpose!)

12. Hair grows no matter how many times it gets cut too short

13. TV is a distraction. (This can be good and bad.) Updated: Netflix, Longmire, Limitless, Blindspot, The Voice, Scandal…. A few years ago I gave up watching TV and listening to music. Times were bad then. I knew I was healed when I began watching TV and listening to music again.

Enjoy your day.
