Love Thy Mother~Mother Earth

With the passing of Mother's Day, which was the first Mother's Day for me without my mom, I have reflected on what motherhood represents and how it relates to our Mother Earth.

Motherhood: nuturing, sustaining, giver of life, haven, provider
This list is short but it does show how the relationship between our mothers and Mother Earth can parallel. Interestingly enough Wikipedia writes: Mother Nature, a common metaphorical expression for the Earth and its biosphere as the giver and sustainer of life.

During my mother's life on Earth from time to time she needed help but especially at the end when she was weak did she need more care. There are signs that the Earth is becoming weaker and she needs our help.

Please reduce, reuse & recycle in honor of all of our Mothers.
