If You Want to Change the World. . .

It sounds overwhelming, "Change the world", so start small.

Change yourself. That can sound overwhelming too, so again, start small.

You don't have to restructure your whole life all at once, pick one

area and start there.

Maybe you choose to live a more sustainable lifestyle, you don't have to turn your yard into a 100% organic farm this year. You might just start a vegetable garden, and make your house more energy efficient. As you get the hang of it, you can keep making improvements.

Maybe you choose to improve your health. You don't have to lose 50 pounds, stop smoking, stop eating fast food, and run a marathon this year. Start small, walk 30 minutes a day and stop smoking. Once you've got a hold on that add something else.

Maybe you choose to be more religious, you don't have to join the monastery/convent, just make a commitment to attend your service of choice once a week. Add more later.

Start small, grow big!

(This is the tree that grows from that seed.)

I Challenge You!!

Easy challenge though, if you have a yard, or a balcony, or a porch, build a square meter garden. Not enough room for a square meter garden, do a square foot or a hanging plant.

Pick whatever food you want to grow. Then grow it. Repeat again next year, and so on and so on.
