One thing I learned in school was the root word of eco. There was a similarity between economy and ecology, and it struck me as an interesting phenomenon. In a University of Vermont Ecology class, I learned that the root word eco comes from oikos, meaning house. From this concept, I came up with the idea of ecological economics. However, more than a house, we need a home that includes the heart and all the love it contains. As a side note, when I was a second-grade child, I ran straight into a white pine tree with my head, which made me pass out momentarily. When I passed out, I saw a vision of huge amounts of spiritual light emanating from my house, both inside and outside. In reality, this experience may be how we feel before we go to heaven. This experience made me feel the warmth of love. Because I have an expansive, integrative mind, I see Earth not only as a house but as our home, with the sun and God’s love naturally as the source of spiritual light and energy. If light means love from God, it makes sense to me. Therefore, we ought to strive to make Earth our home in every way imaginable, for each of us and all of us, everyone, everything, everywhere. Therefore, the warmth of God’s natural, loving light will shine upon us and give us great joy if we live holistically in harmony with humanity and nature on Earth, our shared home. I like the song “Our House” by Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young. Wouldn’t it be great to sing to one another, “Everything is easy cause of you.” I look forward to living together in our Earthly home.  Nobody does it better than each of us, and all of us together.  World without end…
