Today marked the very first 2020 Strike, a day when students would walk out of schools and protest our gross negligence in taking care of planet Earth. Greta Thunberg began raising awareness when she would stand outside the Swedish Parliament every Friday entreating the lawmakers to pay attention to what was going on in our world. People like this wonderful child and Marianne Williamson are not afraid to speak up and point out what many of us may be missing: We're in trouble! Greta convinced her parents to stop traveling by air and to stop eating meat. Her speeches at the United Nations and the United States Congress have caused many others to think about how they live on a day-to-day basis. As an editorial in the Christian Science Monitor stated: "Innovation requires inspiration fueled by a view of possibilities not yet seen." I applaud all the people who are thinking in new ways and helping us to do the same!
“The sun, giving light and heat to the earth, is a figure of divine Life and Love, enlightening and sustaining the universe.” Mary Baker Eddy
