I promise to stay on the path that I have started. One that is to help make sure that you have wild places to see and love. One that explores the absurdity of life and the way that we are all connected. And to make sure that you know the true value of what you can see but not own.
To my darling ones,
And it’s not that I don’t care. I care deeply. For you three, and the families I hope you will have one day; for the many beautiful places I have had the privilege to know, places which take my breath away, that fill my heart with a bursting joy and connectedness to something so much greater than I, places I know may be quite different when you are my age
Dear Society,
If we work together to spread the awareness of what is occurring today, we will be able to prevent it from continuing into the tomorrow.
Dear Owen and Vivian,
Here’s the biggest secret: I KNOW it will have. We may not realize how, but we have changed the world.
Dear future niece or nephew,
We loved hiking, camping, biking, swimming and playing as kids together.
For my most dear and only daughter,
And I know life more fully because of you whom I live on through.
To the People in my Future Life,
Anytime I’m at the crossroads of life, I pray that I, or anyone else in the same position, will keep you in mind, and try to shape a world that’s the best possible for you.
Dear Alanna and Valeria,
I promise you to keep trying, to keep educating, to keep pushing our elected officials to act and protect your health now and in the future.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to pick up trash at every beach I visit, use metal straws, take quick showers.
Dear me,
Remember how passionate you felt at 20, I hope you keep that passion in you and are still working on climate 30 years from now.
Dear Hannah, Harper and future baby of Ryan and Colleen Lane,
I will not stop fighting for a more sustainable future, your future.
dear future people (:
I am writing this message to you guys. When I look outside my window today, I see a beautiful world that others and myself call “home sweet home.” The trees glimmering in warm sunlight, the air stirring a cool breeze, and the water flowing down rivers are parts of our home Mother Earth.
Dear Soren,
In this world that is changing before our eyes, I believe that is our task: standing unflinchingly on the side of love, connecting with others, and forging ahead together.
