What does Earth Day mean to you? To me Earth Day is a time to say "thank you" to the earth. Not just the earth as we pass it by everyday, but every bit of the earth - the soil (a.k.a. dirt, soil, ashes, dust) we walk over each day; the trees that produce the oxygen for us to breath; the plants that grow food for us to eat; the herbs and flowers that heal us; the air we so naturally breathe; the water we hydrate ourselves with; the ancient rainforests of medicinal wonders.
