Let us welcome the Earth Hour.
Let us turn off the electricity, and the engines,
for an hour or so.

And reconnect with Mother Earth,
from now
on.

Good idea….one reason why I garden is to reconnect with Mother Earth and realign my priorities…and get re-energized. Can’t wait till planting time.

Gardening seems to be a very good idea. But I didn’t do pretty well last time. Maybe I should do it again soon :)

Yes, let us do that. Mindfully.
Gardening too. Mindfully. If we give our total focus to each and every task, one step at a time, then leave it to the plants.. who too might absorb some of our mindfulness, and grow mindfully. A Zen master would say that we need to practice mindfulness (zazen) until the last blade of grass is enlightened. :-D

Hi Rizal,

Connecting. Tuning. Remembering. Seeing. Knowing. Being.

@ Derek: Being mindful is the key, I agree. The enlightened blade of grass? I wonder if I can have one on my yard, hahahahaha (anyway my security question for this comment is “the color of grass is”, hahahahahaha :D

@ Alexys: Nice. Thanks for the addition :)
