Geocache Description:

My favorite TV show is Living With Ed. So, since I don't live WITH him, I can live LIKE him. This series will take you to eco-friendly places that would make Ed proud. This cache reminds us not to forget the important things in life-and yes all of them are more important than getting a cache!

This is a challenge cache-to claim this challenge you must find 25 caches that encourage or embody the things that are truly important in life.  No I am not talking about big mushy kisses, or "oh I have a sweetie pie."  I am talking core beliefs and principals that are universal, about what makes the world go round....because it isn't about us, it is about the world, and the things that make it function in a healthy and peaceful manner. 

These are the things that important in life-I have learned them myself, thru volunteering  for several non-profit groups, thru my upbringing, and thru my own life lessons by those I have brought into my life, and those that I have turned out of it.  After reading Ed begley's book, I think that he would agree, these are the things all people should practice.

One hard one I learned is I will never sell out myself by deceiving anyone for someone else's truth. 
Please find 25 caches with the following words in them:

Helping
Giving
Volunteering
Kindness
Truth
Friendship
Loyalty
Family
Honor
Aid
Respect
Teamwork
Values
Beliefs
Character
Compassion
Peace
Faith
Hope
Trust
ideals


Of the 25, five may also be caches where you feel you experienced these important ideals: ie, When I went for this cache, I watched another cacher help a cacher who was fallen and injured and instead of getting the cache, they assisted their fellow man!

Hope and hoping could be used, but hopewell couldn't. Koolaid or Said doesn't work for aid, but aiding would. Friends are not the same as friendship. The root word must be the same and have stand alone, not part of another word. Also words that are antonyms like dishonor, careless, and hopeless will NOT count, as these are not considered positive attributes by most people. Also KIND in your cache should refer to the ADJECTIVE, not a noun like KIND OF PIZZA

THIS CACHE IS DEDICATED TO JEREVIE, QUEEN'S BLESSING and ORNITH, who I feel embody these principles to the fullest!!!!

I was out for a drive and picked this location because it hold many things that are dear to me: look at the fields, there was a horse and a goat I met. It is beautiful, and after finding what is important, you should be rewarded with a beautiful location-at least this is beautiful to me.
