Give a Gift to Earth this Xmas
First, go to arborday.org/your tree and learn more about the importance of replanting our National Forests.
Then, honor someone you love with the gift of a tree planted in their name in one of our National Forests. Let them know how much you care by helping restore our forests to their full grandeur in their name- an inspiration for all who pass through them and a refuge for the wild things of rare beauty and grace that inhabit them! You will send them a beautiful card from the Arbor Day Foundation letting your loved ones know of their important contribution to our environment by having a tree planted in their name. Do It Today, please!
Our National Forests are in great need of your help, especially after the years of neglect by the despicable anti-environmental policies of the Bush administration. . .
The Arbor Day Foundation does more than their share to make it happen. Help them and all of us to boot!
Now this is a Christmas present of LOVE!!!

American Original- THANKSGIVING
By the President of the United States of America.
A Proclamation:
The year that is drawing towards its close, has been filled with the blessings of fruitful fields and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the source from which they come, others have been added, which are of so extraordinary a nature, that they cannot fail to penetrate and soften even the heart which is habitually insensible to the ever watchful providence of Almighty God. In the midst of a civil war of unequaled magnitude and severity, which has sometimes seemed to foreign States to invite and to provoke their aggression, peace has been preserved with all nations, order has been maintained, the laws have been respected and obeyed, and harmony has prevailed everywhere except in the theatre of military conflict; while that theatre has been greatly contracted by the advancing armies and navies of the Union. Needful diversions of wealth and of strength from the fields of peaceful industry to the national defence, have not arrested the plough, the shuttle or the ship; the axe has enlarged the borders of our settlements, and the mines, as well of iron and coal as of the precious metals, have yielded even more abundantly than heretofore. Population has steadily increased, notwithstanding the waste that has been made in the camp, the siege and the battle-field; and the country, rejoicing in the consiousness of augmented strength and vigor, is permitted to expect continuance of years with large increase of freedom. No human counsel hath devised nor hath any mortal hand worked out these great things. They are the gracious gifts of the Most High God, who, while dealing with us in anger for our sins, hath nevertheless remembered mercy. It has seemed to me fit and proper that they should be solemnly, reverently and gratefully acknowledged as with one heart and one voice by the whole American People. I do therefore invite my fellow citizens in every part of the United States, and also those who are at sea and those who are sojourning in foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November next, as a day of Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens. And I recommend to them that while offering up the ascriptions justly due to Him for such singular deliverances and blessings, they do also, with humble penitence for our national perverseness and disobedience, commend to His tender care all those who have become widows, orphans, mourners or sufferers in the lamentable civil strife in which we are unavoidably engaged, and fervently implore the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore it as soon as may be consistent with the Divine purposes to the full enjoyment of peace, harmony, tranquillity and Union.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington, this Third day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, and of the Independence of the Unites States the Eighty-eighth.
By the President: Abraham Lincoln
William H. Seward, Secretary of State
Note: It is so apparent to the modern reader that the constant perfunctory references to 'God' in the various forms found in this document was a purely rhetorical device and offered in deference to a common sentiment of the times, and thus forgiven. Still, the declaration is well written and to the point. It is a heartfelt attempt at some national amelioration of the unprecendented social disruption of a terrible war. . .

Relevant Thought. . .
"Neither a man nor a crowd nor a nation can be trusted to act humanely or to think sanely under the influence of a great fear." -- Bertrand Russell (British philosopher and mathematician, 1872-1970)
