    Nature
    Father Thomas Berry says, "... our primary purpose is celebration. Celebration of the dawn and the sunset and the different seasons of the year is a religious ritual, a way in which humans can establish their integral relationship with the universe, with the planet Earth." What is your response to Berry's assertion?

    What a beautiful celebration this morning! Giving thanks for those things that are beautiful and not in my control and the gift of a fresh, new start, new day. What colors this fall morning too! Bonus gift.

    Energy
    Your utility company is able to tell you your average energy usage. Ask them how your energy usage compares to others in your ZIP code, region, and/or state. What other steps can you take each day to reduce your electricity usage?

    Other steps:  being more cognizant of powering on and off equipment; what lights are on and needed; watching more closely oven usage (how long pre-heat lasts).
