May your Birthday be blessed  with good family and friends, and laughter and hope.
I thank you for being part of my Meditative Council.





Hearty congratulations to the team who helped create the Greenrise Building "Solar Project "….   Well done!

You're the greatest! Marge

Most often I doubt this because I prefer to imagine that the creator/sustainer/redeemer (all life is Trinitarian) of the universe should work on my timeline or at my demand.   (I even, often, want the work to be done through me.)  We have known for a long time that the world has always had difficulty keeping up with us.  Let us imagine that this is the cracking of the ice and that we shall soon hear the thunder of the floes as regards funds available for this intention.  I will look forward to vegetables from the roof some summer soon.

There are similar Festivals happening in Los Angeles (Oct 19-20), San Francisco (Nov 9-10), Washington, DC (Sept 21-22), and New York (April 19-21). The prize was for $5,000.

>> On a related note, we also received notice last week that the GreenRise Building "solar project" has been awarded a $359,000 grant from the Illinois Clean Energy Community Foundation to install renewable energy panels on our rooftop. The building at 4750 Sheridan is becoming a VERY high profile embodiment of "green culture" to complement our neighborhood sustainability work across the 77 community areas of Chicago.
