The Indians taught the English settlers 400 years ago how important it was to give thanks for an abundant harvest and all that the earth gives us to sustain us. The first Thanksgiving was a lesson in appreciation and also on being careful with our resources, using every single part of an animal or plant for what it can provide.
We have come a long way since then and we don’t always remember those invaluable lessons about not being wasteful. Much of our natural resources are taken for granted and destroyed unnecessarily as we rush about our busy lives. There are many ways to return to an appreciative mindset, even while enjoying all that we have today. An eco-friendly dog bed made of recycled plastic bottles is the perfect example of using resources to their fullest potential and enjoying today’s life. Your pet cares as mush about this earth as you do!
