Words? Just
that? Do they mean something? Do you care? Do I care? What do you do? What do I
do?
We have one
planet. We live on it as if it were disposable. It is not. It renews itself,
but, at its own rithym, can you follow it? Do you want to follow it? You have
to slow down, wait for it, maybe, even, give some steps back, change,
participate, help, clean, do everything that everyone else consider themselves,
too busy or too good to do.
In order to
‘decrease world suck levels’ we have to be willing, it won’t be easy, taking
one step at the time, and never stop. Do it, so the next generation gets here
and see it differently than what you and I got here to see, and, teach them to
take care of their toys, their loved ones, their houses, their animals, their
Earth.
I believe
that the world is just as sick as its habitants, a nasty house is always a nice
place to find disease. We have to take care of one and of the other. And w ego
back to the same old subject I HAVE TO CHANGE MY LIFESTYLE for health, for beauty, for the environment,
“be the change you want to see” walk
the talk. I am focusing on this because is my purpose, stop talking the talk
and start walking the walk, and put my money where my mouth is. I need to
change, and I want to do it one step at the time, because all greta journeys
began with one step, and has time goes by I will walk faster and faster and
then start running toward my goal. Becoming better, for me, for you, for the
world
And what is
the best way to start?
Put on some
goals.
- 1. Always turn off the lights (I have that bad habit, always forgetting lights on)
- 2. Buy a water bottle, that is not made of plastic, honestly I want a Sigg cause I had one and until today it was the best water bottle I ever had, it was stolen. But now I drink from regular plastic bottles, and even washing them there is always a time when they start smelling, I have to throw them away, and buy a new one… I hate it, and planet Earth hates my trash.
- 3. Another thing that I want to buy is a thermic cup, so I won’t need those Styrofoam cups, then I can take my tea and coffee everywhere.
- 4. I realy want to reduce the amount of plastic bags that I use, each day I might use about 4 … and honestly it sucks. As I may have said before I eat on my university cafeteria, and I hate to eat breakfast there, I go to the cafeteria get the cereal and come back to my room, (hint: I always bring my cereal in a small plastic bag, like the ones people use on fruit and vegetables) but today I did something different, instead of bringing enough cereal for today I brought enough cereal for at least until Sunday! (Awesome right?) Now, tomorrow I’ll just go there to get a banana and hot milk (in the damn Styrofoam cup) I have a plastic box that I use for lunch so at lunch hour I don’t increase world suck levels.
- 5. Shorter shower, wash clothes once a week and walk around everywhere is something that I do already! (yay me, something right joy!)
- 6. Something I want to start doing, and I know it will hurt, mostly in my pocket, is to start buying organic/eco-friendly/crueltyfree cosmetics. Like this. And since all my beauty treatments go on the homemade, DIY direction I believe it won’t be that big of deal (for my pocket I mean)
- 7. Clouthing. Well I know that in Argentina I won’t buy any clothes, mostlye because it is economically and tastily out of my range, one way up other way down. Anyway, I already use each piece of clothing until it cannot be used anymore. I have nothing but essential, but regarding buying I’d like to experiment buy on those eco-friendly lines… I don’t know… something like that.
So, this
are my initial goals, probably I will change and adapt many of them and probably
also add some new things, as I learn. Now I want to hear from you! What do you
think about all of this?
What are
your biggest issues? Any suggestion?
Feel free
to comment and suggest ;D
Enjoy
