What can you do during Earth Hour?

I am inviting all of you to take part in the Earth Hour tomorrow. Please turn off your lights from 8:30-9:30 in the evening and help us save the environment.

When I shared with my husband that we will be taking part in the Earth Hour tomorrow, his first question was, "What are we going to do if we turn off the lights, the computer, and the television?" Well, there can be a lot of things to do. Here are some of my suggestions:

1. Reflect on life. You canm do this alone but I would prefer that you do this with your family as well. Reflect about your life in the previous year. What was the most significant learning that you had? And what are your dreams for this year and the years to come. And lift these all up to God who has the best plans for us. :)

2. Play and have fun. Bond with your loved-ones by playing games and having fun. When was the last time that you spent quality time with them? You can play board games. What is your favorite? I remember when I was still young we loved playing Monopoly, Snakes and Ladders, Games of the Generals and Scrabble. Or you can play cards, funny bones, hide-and-seek, charades, etc. I bet it will be a lot of fun!!

3. Sleep early. When was the last time you had enough sleep? Remember that every person must have at least 8 hours of sleep. So why not take this chance to catch up on your much-needed rest?

4. Reminisce. Browse through your photo albums and scrapbooks. Have fun laughing at old pictures with the weird hair do's and outfits. :)

5. Make love (for husbands and wives). No need to elaborate on this one. :)

6. Treat your spouse with a massage -- feet, hand, or the entire body. Express your love to your spouse with a well-deserved massage.

7. Have a candlelit dinner date. Trade your usual well-lit dinners with a romantic candlelit one.
