    Father Thomas Berry says, "... our primary purpose is celebration. Celebration of the dawn and the sunset and the different seasons of the year is a religious ritual, a way in which humans can establish their integral relationship with the universe, with the planet Earth." What is your response to Berry's assertion?

    I agree with Father Thomas Berry's assertion, I think that celebrating the universe and the beauties of it is a sacred thing that deserves to be celebrated.

    Creativity is a necessary ingredient for practicing simplicity because sometimes it does not easily come by, and one needs to take creative measures to reach simplicity.
