I think we have all had it at some time, many times I am sure in fact. Your in the supermarket, its late, your hungry, your grabbing your shopping, you have good intentions of helping the environment but you forgot your eco bag, I guess it wont hurt its only one bag. It occurred to me just how many people, somewhere in the world, are think that same thought at the same time, this then makes your one innocent plastic bag not just one, but one of many.
I believe we can all ‘be the change we wish to see in the world’, just by making small changes in our daily lives. A lot of us are blind to the impact we create in this world, the foot prints we leave behind when we walk our path through life. From my own experience in life, I have grown to believe this is often because we think that even if we tried to make a small difference it would be so insignificant that it would hardly scratch the surface.
However after watching Obama inauguration speech I am reminded of my vision that we can create better in our world, and not by each of us waiting for someone else to fix it for us, but by believing in our own greatness and our own abilities to make that difference.
Therefore I have created ‘Bags of Change’, the same bags of colour bags, just with a positive statement added to the pocket from someone who has proven we can achieve great things and we can impact positive change. Dare to be seen with a ’Bags of Change’ bag by and spread a positive message. http://www.bagsofcolour.com http://www.bethshepherd.com
