Earth Day every day

       Earth Day was two days ago.   But every day should be Earth Day because we owe ourselves to planet earth--it is our home.

       And just as "humus" is Latin for earth, so Latin has supplied us the word for beings who are of the earth--human, us!  Yes, it is etymologically true.  "Human" beings are "earth" beings.

       And for those who would like to visit or revisit my "Earth Day Reading" of April 22, 2013, you can find that link here.

       And for some further connections of "humans" to this "earth," may I suggest a return to my post of August 14, 2013.

       HAPPY earthday.
