It's been such a long time since I've posted to this blog; clearly, everyday life and a few dozen other things have gotten in the way. But I believe in the ideas behind it, and I'm still just as passionate about trying to live in a way that benefits this planet and the beings living on it.
That means getting healthier, wiser, and more connected. It means leaving light footsteps on the surface of the earth, not razing its resources to the ground. It means realizing that living and eating "green" is a step in a much healthier direction.
Because life can be busy and being green is a job for more than one person, I've added another writer to this blog. My older daughter is currently at college, and she may have many insights not only about the values with which she grew up, but also about just how it might be possible for even a busy college student to make a difference and live as "greenly" as possible in the midst of busy schedules and other important life events.
Welcome, Ayuh! (Our affectionate nickname for her. Her baby sister called her that when they were younger and it stuck.)
