1000 Flowers for the Planet - #84 Respect the Planet
I’d like to start the New Year by suggesting
we learn ‘respect’. The word ‘respect’ can be used as a verb, which is a doing word – it’s something we do. It’s meaning: to feel appreciative,
often deferential regard for something; to esteem something; to avoid violation
of something; to avoid interference with something; to relate to something; to
refer to something.
Now let me replace the word ‘something’ with
the word ‘planet’: To feel appreciative, often deferential regard for the
planet; to esteem the planet; to avoid violation of the planet; to avoid
interference with the planet; to relate to the planet; to refer to the planet.
It is only by replacing our current
disregard for the planet with respect for the planet and ALL
things therein, that we can reverse the damage we have done and provide a
better future.
