In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
78. It is God who has created for you hearing, sight, feeling, and understanding. Little thanks it is you give!
79. And God has multiplied you through the earth, and to God shall you be gathered back.
80. It is God Who gives life and death, and to God the alternation of night and day. Will you not then understand?
81. On the contrary, they say things similar to what the ancients said.
82. They say, "What! When we become dust and bones, could we really be raised up again?"
83. "Such things have been promised to us and our fathers before! They are nothing but tales of the ancients!"
84. Say, "To whom belong the earth and all things therein? If you know!"
85. They will say, "To Allah!" Say, "Yet, will you not receive admonition?"
The Believers 23:78-85

Ya Allah, thank You for all You have given me. Please forgive me as I will never be able to thank You adequately.

Happy Earth Day
And so to celebrate Earth Day, I cut the grass over at your house inshaAllah. Here it's not a matter of growing more trees, it's more a case of controlling the growth here. The weeds here are the size of trees, well because they are trees. And the vines, you can swing on them like Tarzan. I took down some jackfruit and gave it to the neighbor, and I harvested some young coconut for my Mom. It's been a while since I rode a bicycle, but I used to back in the mountains of Utah. Instead I rode my motorcycle to town to get gasoline. It's not a car, at least. I do so much gardening and yard work, I must be giving back to the earth.
