Hopeful Beginnings




"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." -M.K. Ghandi






We hope from this blog that individuals can be connected in a way that challenges each of us to change the world. We, the authors, first humbly come, recognizing that we are merely presenting ideas to discuss and debate but do not come declaring that we have discovered all the "right" answers. Our hope is that many will visit and comment with their ideas and even suggest new topics to cover that will help each of us make small changes that make big impacts on the world around us.


Here are some of the topics that we will try to touch:

--Spiritual discussions & ideas
--Practical Ways to Save & Reduce Waste
--Family Features – Your journey in simplicity and community
--Companies & Products – The good, bad & the ugly.
--Exchange/Share Post – listings of things available for trade
--Services Post – What you do that may be of use to others
--Community – Events in areas of town, ideas about how we can live in community
--Environmental & Health – Products, Food, Earth, Gardening
--Service – How can we help those in our community
--Consumerism --affects on Americans
--World Issues--Global & Local Needs
--Book Reviews, Sites of interest & Suggestions


Today, we have added a new suggested site recommended by Doug. Please check it out!
