April 22, 2023: INTERNATIONAL EARTH Day

Dear friends, today (April 22, 2023) is the International Earth Day, and the theme is “Invest in Our Planet” 

(same like last year – which in fact it is a continuation of the successful 2022 campaign).

In my opinion, this occasion is the perfect opportunity for each of us to be reminded to pay more attention to our environment and to make sure we each do our very best in taking the appropriate measures in order to preserve it! We often forget that WE ARE NATURE. Nature is not something separate from us, so when we say that we have lost our connection to nature actually we’ve lost our connection to ourselves … definitively something important to ponder upon.

Small action/s, big meaning…protect nature, preserve life!

● Background info:

Earth Day is an annual event celebrated around the world on April 22 to demonstrate support for ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION. First celebrated in 1970, it now includes events in more than 193 countries, focusing on engaging more than 1 billion people, governments, institutions and businesses to recognize our collective responsibility and to help accelerate the transition to an equitable, prosperous green economy for all.

EASTER (Pascha) – a significant moment of the year celebrating the triumph of life, while emphasizing the symbol of rebirth,
the importance of light and hope, and the power of heavenly love overcoming earthly nihilistic temptations.

On March 20, 2023, the entire world is also observing the International Day of Happiness.

According to UN, “we can create a happier and kinder world together by adopting simple, daily practices. This year’s theme is: ‘Be Mindful. Be Grateful. Be Kind’

There are lots of issues in our world right now. We can’t always change what is happening, but we can choose how we respond.”

So, ‘Be Mindful. Be Grateful. Be Kind’…give it a try and if you find it helpful, share it with others too!
