My birthday, April 22, is also Earth day. As a philosophical conservative I get a bit of teasing over that fact. But hey, I'm for good stewardship of the Earth. I'm just not for vaguely pagan claptrap.
Political swipes aside, I have discovered a better meaning to my date of birth. April 22 is In God We Trust Day. By act of Congress on April 22, 1864, it was declared that these United States could add the words In God We Trust to our currency. No, I do not remember its passage. I'm not that old.
In God We Trust Day. I like that better. And you will be reminded of it every April 22 from here on out.
