Sacred Earth.Global Village Mission Statement

There was once a time when there was no distinction between 'tame' and 'wild' and human culture took form directly from relationship with the environment in which it evolved. In our time, our culture has often lost the original meaning inspired directly on interaction and appreciation of the earth. It is said that 'you can never stand in the same river twice', however, Sacred Earth.Global Village promotes seeking a fresh view and going back to 'Turtle Island', as Iroquois culture calls it, and restore our original connection with nature. We seek to restore ourselves and our culture by entering a direct relationship with nature to relearn the ‘original instructions’ that are our natural heritage. With the advances in our understanding of life, natural history, science, filtered through reconnection with the earth, we can become more of what it means to be a human being living as part of the web of life.

We wish for these explorations to inspire positive growth in new directions for members, and that friendships and collaborations are forged.

CREATING YOUR MEMBER PAGE

All members of Sacred Earth.Global Village have an opportunity to create a space, and set up 'camp', for themselves with an individual member page to post photos, blogs, receive comments and join group discussions. Members are encouraged to take the time to visit each other's camps.

This group is moderated to oversee the integrity of our experience here together. Members in good standing* are encouraged to become more active with the following:

Suggesting:

- Subjects for a Group that you would enjoy leading.

- Categories for discussion in the Forum which you would like to start. All members are welcome to create discussion 'topics' in Forum categories already created.

- Presentations you would like to have in the Theater/Gallery Lodge

You have the opportunity to create a unique appearance for your member page by selecting from 'theme' options . In the interest of simplicity, please limit your photos to ten per person. Consider rotating what you present here. We appreciate if you refrain from mounting videos or background photos on your member pages due to some members having dial-up internet service and being unable to open large files. However, the Theater/Gallery Lodge is available for special presentations of videos and other features of interest to members.

* Members in good standing- Members who have been actively engaged in the Earth Journal: Return To Turtle Island project and/or the Challenges.

Greetings all,

I am here to share, develop my awareness and learn along with everyone and am honored to be leading this journey. I will do all that I can to support that it be a good one for you. If I make errors, it is not my intention. If you have input or would like other assistance, please send me an e-mail in my mailbox, here, and I will do what I can to honor your requests and comments.

Thank you for being here.

Autumn Greetings

A glorious autumn it's been. We were lucky and had a stretch of beautiful weather. The wind blows a bit more blustery each day and reminds that a long winter is slowly coming upon the land. Have been considering riding this one out in a warmer climate- i.e. Florida- because there's more likelihood of work there, too.

I hope folks have been enjoying their time outdoors and the progression of the season. A compliment came in on twitter about Johanna's strawberry plants. If you tweet, do drop a li… Continue

Question of The Month: If all creatures on earth became domesticated, what would life be like?

Humans seem to be doing their 'best' to try to control all of nature. It can't be done, I imagine. But what if all wildlife gave up their 'original instructions'? How would it impact our lives as human beings?

Mid Summer 2009



A walk around the village (really a town of 7500 inhabitants, but the place has always kept its country village nature) brings us to a large tree filled park with a magnficent artifical lake. Part of the lake is used to present classical plays. The stage is located in the middle of… Continue

Late Spring 2009



It's late Spring and the last of the tulips are beginning to fade away. For some reason tulips last a long time in my yard. It could be because it's in full shade and the soil remains humid for a longer period of time. So far we've had a rather plasant spring, the weather has been s… Continue

HR 1018: Protecting The Wild Mustangs

So often requests come through asking for voters response toward legislation protecting wildlife. For the most part the requests have been for the protection of the Artic preserve & polar bears, wolves & baby seals. I have tried to do my part and wrote at least once for each of these. I mostly invest my energies in pro-active ways of healing the environment. But, today I saw a request and did write to our congress people regarding HR 1018. See below.… Continue

Welcome to France, My Adopted Country

Welcome to France, my adopted country

France: what type of country is she? Is she Paris? Is she the Riviera? Is France high snowy mountains or deep forest valleys? Is she beautiful sandy beaches and high surf like waves? France is all of these and more. France is my country of adoption, having married one of her natives 35 years ago. More recently I became a naturalized citizen, since I intend to spend the rest of my life there.

France is one of the three pillar countries of Europe, joining wi… Continue

Nature in the supermarket parking lot

Friday, after leaving the supermarket, in town, something on the bumper of my car caught my attention. It looked like a small piece of food. Something either fruit or candy-like. It looked pale color like cotton candy. It was a small pink, white and greenish hunk of something but it didn't have the appearance of having been chewed. Thinking about it as I write, I realized that 'food' was being eliminated in my mind because it didn't look as if someone had been eating as they were passed my car a… Continue

Letter regarding 'To Know A Place'

Letter written in response to a blog 'To Know A Place' published by Debra Lynn Dadd in 'Rooted In Nature'.

06/29/2009

Greetings Debra and all,

The latest entry 'Nature Exalted' brought me to read this entry which I had missed, along with many other things that are fabulous and come my way. I have been in the midst of establishing a Ning Social Network group 'Sacred Earth.Global Village'. I believe I had sent you an announcement.

I feel that we cannot waste another moment wit
