NEW YEAR A COMING!!! 2007
Welcome to your life.............. and the upcoming year of 2007
This should be fun everyone, we have alot to do and must begin to Live like this is it.
This is all we have and if we choose to do so, we could collectively make this year the Great Year of Change. If enough of us decide to disconnect from the Hive mentality of WAR HATE AND create a new vision of what Earth could be like,,
well.............
we could create UTOPIA instead of the DisTopia that has been created by the MegaMultiNational Corporations and Elite 1% of the populations Rich have made of this world. It is time for the people to Revolt against the Madness and retake the Earth for our very survival. WE HAVE TO CHANGE OURSELVES FIRST. For it is US who are destroying the world in our CONSUMPTION. We are literally eating ourselves out of house and home
The world is being killed. And if you are helping to kill Earth, now is the time to turn yourself around and figure out how you are going to help in the process of Change that will save Humanity from itself.
What does this mean.
Well, it will mean something different for everyone who reads this and takes this message to heart. For me, it means DisConnecting from the processes that underline the Wealth of the World for Profit, Greed, and Control and exchange that process for something else. I am taking the steps to disconnect in many different ways.
First I am evaluating my CONSUMER LIFESTYLE and CHANGING it into something different.
My idea is that, being the monetarily poor person I am at the moment, I will pull what little resources I have back and not allow myself to help feed the MegaRich/Multinational corps who OWN US ALL. F___ BRANDNAME everything!! I now will go out of my way to stop buying from the Huge Corporations who fund the perpetual stifling of human Freedoms and prosperity.
I Rebuke ALL FAST FOOD for example. I now refuse to give a dime to MickyD's Burger King, Taco E Coli, etc. etc. etc.
Being that I have returned to my Vegetarian roots,, this will be easy as home made pecan pie!!
These are small steps,,, but they will add up.
Next, or in unison with, All Maslov Needs: Shelter, Clothes, Food/Water will be SIMPLE and as Home Grown as possible. LOCAL LOCAL LOCAL will be the Mantra I use when shopping for anything from now on. Farmers Markets here I come!! Thrift Stores,,, you know me too well.
Other things in Project Mode:
A Rainwater Catchment system that I am working on to retrieve as much water I can from the Natural world of Rain. This will also be in unison with my first major House project to come out of this, and I will be figuring out how to convert to Solar Hot Water Heating. Also with the Water theme I will be diverting all gray water to be used for the SquareFoot Gardens I am building to use this year.. I have hopefully enlisted my neighbors to begin their own gardens with me, so we can trade, and help each other out. Being that I live in a cul-de-sac I hope to get more neighbors on board come spring,, if not before, local, simple, and a return to NEIGHBORHOODS,, not HOODS that kill (literally sometimes) the contact with those who live next door to you.
Recycling is in full force already, and I am trying to come up with creative ways to use the trash I create.. It is a fallacy when we think that we throw something '''Away"" there is NO 'Away' !!
(White Crow I have not forgot you or the lessons you taught me!)
Composting is still in force, and last years compost has been spread for the new garden. New Compost has been started and is 'heating up'
So, if you are serious about changing the World,,
BE THE CHANGE YOU WISH TO SEE IN THE WORLD
Wanna Help me Save the World??
Make a major change in YOURSELF TODAY.
Simplify
Recycle
ReUse
Do with LESS
USE IT MORE THAN ONCE
Save: be it paper, water use, or vegetable matter going down the garbage disposal and instead put it in a compost pile today,,, tommorow you might have some organic dirt to grow something beautiful in...
Plant a Tree
Economize
Conserve
Downsize
MAKE IT YOURSELF
DISCONNECT to RECONNECT TO LIFE!!!

one of my mantras and new year resolutions this year will be recycle recycle recycle. I have been not as good as I could on this the past year. I have no possibility of composting, but paper, glass and metal is easy to do. I'll also look for where I can recycle plastic. I have gone through my closet too, giving away the clothes I don't use any more. The things that are not useable I have given to a place that make blankets for the army from old clothes. Many of these blankets are shipped to disaster areas abroad (like to Pakistan last year after the big earthquake).
You're always such an inspiration, Scott. Making the changes that you want to see in the world really all starts with yourself.
Much love and many blessings to you, Scott, in the upcoming year.
Hello you Beautiful Women,, I love you both so much for being who you are, and hope to visit your respective blogs more in the New Year, as I am trying to improve myself in areas of communication again..
Nerdine, I have been trying to think of creative ways to recycle the "trash" I produce by living a "modern" life. Most of it is non-compostable paper, glass, etc. so if you get any cool even crazy ideas on recycling everyday trash let me know.
Good for you for the donations,, I am getting ready to do the same,,, trying to find the right place to take the items.
Hope all is well with you,,, How is the weather over there?? We still are having summer/fall type weather here.... so the holidays have been warm!!
Nova!!!!! Hey! it is so good to hear from you,, you are an inspiration too!! and I need to get over to your blog and see what inspiring things you are thinking. Hope you are well also, Many blessing to you too, Always!
