Tara Watts: Pulling Together | Pulling Together

This week's promise: All roads that lead to God are good.

Goodness and Guidance

All roads that lead to God are good.
What matters it, your faith, or mine?
Both centre at the goal divine
Of love’s eternal Brotherhood.

A thousand creeds have come and gone,
But what is that to you or me?
Creeds are but branches of a tree—
The root of love lives on and on.

Though branch by branch proves withered wood,
The root is warm with precious wine.
Then keep your faith and leave me mine—
All roads that lead to God are good.

Health and Wellness Tip of the Week

What kind of water is safest for us to drink? The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has reported that the biggest polluter of US rivers and streams is commercial agricultural chemicals that are sprayed onto crops, and then run off into the waterways. It is questionable whether other countries are much better. Is tap water really safe enough?

If possible, install a whole-house water filtration system in order to filter out these agricultural chemicals, as well as chlorine, heavy metals and other contaminants that are frequently found in water supplies, even in cities. If the water turns your tub green, you don’t want to be drinking it, and you don’t want to be bathing in it as your skin absorbs about 70% of those contaminants. If you live in an apartment or condominium, it may be easier to install tap and shower filters. The water tastes better, and makes for softer skin in the bath or shower. Filtering your own water is better than buying bottled, as many of the bottled waters are not contaminant free and are sometimes worse than tap water, AND the plastic bottles cause an enormous amount of garbage.
