I hope you take on global warming better then we did. I hope you continue on with the marches, and actually try and change the way we are accustomed to and how we are affecting the earth in a negative way. Even if you are only one person, of any age, you can make a difference. People will follow. It only takes one voice. So, if you have an opinion, stand up and say it. It won’t do any harm.
To My Grandchildren,
It’s my hope that the following will be helpful as you navigate your futures. These are the confessions of a climate activist:
To my daughter and her children,
As a minister, I have preached that we are here to be of service to others and to be care takers of this wonderful planet that God has given us.
Dear… Parents,
Let us teach our children to volunteer and donate.
dear future people (:
I hope that people are still enjoying the wonders that nature has to offer.
Dear Generations to Be,
If we could all slow down, look around and connect: with each other, the Earth, the sky, the plants and rocks and animals, then maybe we can all remember to treat everyone and everything with respect and live in love.
Dear future niece or nephew,
We loved hiking, camping, biking, swimming and playing as kids together.
Dear Kaydence,
I will keep trying Kaydence, I promise. And I hope we can look back together in 2050 and smile, knowing that our Earth is healthy once again.
To the generation after mine,
But when you encounter that resistance–and you will, regularly–know that you must respond just how we have had to these past 50 years. With love, and sternness, and most of all, courage. Because that is what the resistance fears the most. We who came before you promise that we will do the same while we wait for you. Know that you will never be alone.
Dear Rosie,
But when you are reading this years from now, by the light of a solar powered lamp, know that your dad, mom and millions of others who burned brightly with love for our kids did what we could, when we knew the stakes.
Dear Luna,
I will never give up on you, on humanity, on the future.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to only use metal straws and reusable cups.
Dear Darlings,
I commit to you to change one thing a year in our lifestyle to live more environmentally friendly.
