The world, it turns out, is full of succulent fruit that we have never tasted, lovely sights we have never seen, fascinating people whom we will never meet. It’s easy to regret missing out on so much, but what a miracle that the world is so full of wonders that we can never taste or see or meet them all!
What one thing that you have never experienced would you most like to encounter?
“My appointed work is to awaken the divine nature that is within.”
–Peace Pilgrim
What is your calling?
On April 22nd, 1970, Earth Day was born as a way to celebrate our amazing planet, and to highlight the need for environmental protections. More than 40 years later we have laws regulating pollution of water and air that have made tremendous improvements, and yet habitat loss and climate change now have devastating and rapidly growing effects.
What choices do you make with the express intention of preserving or protecting the environment?
Sometimes life forces us to go slow, to follow the signs that demand that we take it easy.
Has idleness that was not your choice ever been a blessing?
It is possible that the architect of this house got just the tiniest bit carried away with the gingerbread. But, as Mae West put it, “Too much of a good thing can be wonderful.”
What would you say the world can never get enough of?
