People often say, “oh, I wouldn’t want to live there” as they watch people deal with flood, earthquakes, tornados, droughts. But the fact is there’s not a place on Mother Earth where both the Earth and Nature don’t have their way with us.

When the land moves in CA and when volcanoes explode in Iceland, it’s frightening. And it’s the Earth, stretching, belching doing what it’s always done.

But when we see escalating storms and extreme weather patterns, when the winds rise and the waters decline from our actions we do little or nothing.

It’s true but frightening, the Earth will go on without us. We, however, will not do much without the Earth. At what point are we moved to make Peace with our lives and the future of our children and their children?
