Children of the planet

We often refer to our home as Mother Earth. I once heard that perhaps we should think of the Earth more as our child than as our parent, Our planet is a gift to us just as a child would be. Imagine what our planet would be like if we could care for it as our child. We would want only what is best for it. We would make sure that it is clean and well tended. We would be sensitive to its every need. Do you think it would appreciate being strewn with garbage and choked with polluted air? How would we expect it to thrive under these conditions? It is time for us to make a shift from abusing our child to practicing love and kindness towards it. In return it will provide us a healthier place to live. Remember that, like us, our Earth is composed of energy. The good news is that our planet is showing signs of vibrating at a higher level due to an increased awareness of its importance to us. This will only continue if we maintain this awareness and caring. What are you doing today to nurture and care for your child, the Earth?
