Take it Easy Being Green

Very rarely does the world have a major paradigm shift that changes everything. Usually change takes place little by little over years and generations—sometimes for good and sometimes not. So it is in our lives. There are moments that enact major change (graduations, weddings, births) but these are usually a reflection of change that has been happening in small units (hours of study, growing up, learning to love).

Habits and patterns are established little by little to align with our values and passions as well as our weaknesses and tendencies. Once we embrace the value of taking care of our world and working together to help, we can begin to make small changes in our patterns to align with this value.

In this site, the idea of going green isn’t to make new year’s resolutions to overhaul our entire lives, but to change small things over time to make a difference.
