EarthStewards

I just came across a wonderful web site that I wanted to share with you. I am always looking for groups and organizations that are working to make this world a better place by empowering individuals and challenging each of us to step out and do something that will benefit both us and the world. EarthStewards seems to do exactly that.

As their mission states:
EarthStewards is a worldwide multicultural network dedicated to inspiring and empowering ordinary people to stretch, grow and learn. We take bold action for conflict transformation and the creation of positive relationships bridging boundaries of gender, race, culture, nations, age and beliefs.

I encourage you to check out them out and while you’re there, print out the “Say YES pledge. (See below.) It’s a great reminder of the power of saying YES in our lives and how that power can ripple out and touch so many lives.

Say YES

I say YES to my life.
I say YES to love.
I say YES to a one-world family.
I say YES to a planet at peace.
I say YES to all the children everywhere.
I say YES to us.
I want my next act to increase the YES in the world.

One must care about a world one will never see. – Bertrand Russell
