Peter's Earth Journal

by Peter Gwillim Kreitler

Peter's Journal: The word journal means a daily record of happenings. It can also mean a regular entry of recordings. There is nothing at a discretionary level that I do daily except maybe brush my teeth, so I am going to try and keep a regular journal about the earth and its magnetic pull on me.

There is something quite remarkable about the earth's allure and the creatures therein. I will attempt to journalize my feelings, observations, frustrations and dreams about the only home I will ever know.
