 Time to pass the  Torch

The Lighting of the Olympic Torch Ceremony in Greece was beautifully choreographed in its ancient tradition. Here it is again: every four years, the Leap year when we catch up a day to tweak our human designed calendars to match solar time, and the year we celebrate with the Olympic Games.

“The context within which we place ourselves and the focus we choose as a filter on life, provides a matrix of meaning for our minds.”

This Saturday night, millions of man made lights will be turned off for an hour in a symbolic gesture of solidarity to demonstrate our willingness to restrain the affluenza that is a world plague.
Earth hour, from 8-9 pm. Across the globe. 

Time for the first fire of the season in a clean fireplace: home, hearth and friends by firelight. Or is that too much CO2 emissions?

Time for peace.
