Random thoughts...

Things I want to try:
1. Not buying anything new (except food) for a week.
2. Going several days/a week with as little power as possible...aka indoor plumbing is a given, but no blow-drying, that sort of thing.
3. Someday...only buying fair trade.
4. Being a vegetarian for a week.
5. Reusing/Recycling as much as I possibly can.

Well if I think of more I will post them later. Time to go. :)

It's been a while...

Hello anyone who might come across this, or has been checking it even though I haven't posted in years...Welcome.


On a whim, I decided to start this up again, at least for the time being, but I want it to be more than just another journal.

I want this to be some sort of impetus for change, something to make me actually get my bum in gear and start doing all of the things I feel so passionately about. There are so many places I want to go, things I want to do, and people that I want to help. I want to travel everywhere and feed, clothe and teach people, and I want to be able to talk to them in their own language.

I feel so blessed to be born into the circumstances I was. Simply the fact that I'm typing this on a computer, with internet proves that point.

I don't know yet how I'm going to organize this project, or even if anyone will read it, but it's a start in the right direction...I hope.

So for anyone who reads this or cares, it's kind of fun actually....I wish they had it in other languages...
