How is the climate in your neck of the wood?

Istijlál (Majesty), 19 Mashiyyat (Will), 166 BE – Thursday, October 15, 2009 about 7:06 AM Pacific Time

Climate and weather
warm, cold, hot, dry, in between
life lives in climate.

Is climate changing?
We have to ask the question
for our survival.

Just when I’ve decided to give up I get an e-mail

From time to time, the stress gets to me and I decide I'm going to give up writing and blogging. Today was one of those days. It doesn't matter what made me want to decide to give up. What does matter is that I received an e-mail, which changed my mind.

The e-mail was from the Blog Action Day team. The e-mail contained a link to a survey that ask for my input about the theme. I clicked on the link and responded to the survey. I can't give up blogging until after Blog Acton Day on October 15.

Blog Action Day began two years ago. I've participated in it every year so I have to participate in it again this year. Since I can't give up blogging until after October 15, I can give up writing either. Writing is blogging.

October 15 is Blog Action Day

October 15, 2008 is blog action day, when over 1,779 sites world wide with a readership of over 3,190,892, will blog about the same theme poverty. Register your blog at Blog Action Day 2008 Poverty and write about poverty.

Write about any aspect of proverty, which fits the theme of your blog. For example, since the theme of this blog is transformation I can write about how poverty changes the way a person thinks and acts. I have had some experience with poverty lately, so I may write about that or I could post some quotes from the sacred scriptures about poverty.

All religions and Holy Books have something to say about poverty. I am not sure right now precisely what I will write. I have a few weeks to pray and meditate on this subject. There are so many different aspects to poverty that any blogger can find an approach to the subject with little effort.

I am not sure what time I will post. Normally I try to post early in the day, especially if I have a subject and theme. However, if I work that day then I will not post until I get off. I do not have access to a computer or the Internet where I work. In addition, poverty is a subject that requires focus when writing about it, so I will post when I get home.

Join us on October 15, 2008 as either a reader or a blogger. For suggestions on how to approach, the subject or other actions you can take go to Blog Action Day 2008 Poverty.

Blogging the Environment

13 Mashiyyat 164 B.E. - Monday, October 8, 2007 about 9:07 PM PDT



October 15, 2007 is Blog Action Day devoted to blogging about the environment. Write about it from a personal perspective or relate it to the subject of your blog. United action at the grass roots level will change the world. The individual blogger is at the grass root level of civilization and society.

I'm not sure just yet of the specific title of my entry on that day. It depends on the quote that I include in the post. I've blogged on several different topic most related to either my religion, spirituality, transformation or writing. My post will relate the environment to one of those topics. I'm going to make an entry in all four of my blogs that day concerning the environment. The entries will cover various topics from writing to spirituality and perhaps other subjects.

I'm looking forward to seeing what other bloggers have to say on the subject. I'm also looking forward to the results this will have on the world at large. This is an interesting experiment in action at the grass roots level a multitude of blogs covering the same subject.

6 Days left until Blog Action Day
