IN GRATITUDE TO MOTHER EARTH



This Mother's Day I want to give thanks to the mother of us all, Mother Earth.

Too long have we lorded over her with greed! The extinction of countless of her species; the plundering of her soil for gems, precious metals, and carbon deposits; the overfishing and dumping of pollutants into her oceans; the wasting of her treasures in the name of profit and industry; all of these things represent the theft of the legacy of all future life. The Earth and all of her resources are the legacy of every living organism on the planet. Every unborn child and animal has a stake in the Earth's resources.


Right now, oil spills unrestricted into the Gulf Of Mexico, threatening to turn that entire sea into a swirling cesspool of toxic waste; the rest of our oceans are teetering on the brink of death as we mercilessly ravage them of all edible species of fish. The poles rapidly are melting and our oceans rising. All of this destruction of the only thing which keeps us alive in the cold and lonely emptiness of space, and she still selflessly gives us all that we need.


THANK YOU, MOTHER EARTH!
