My "public" has been clamoring for me to post on my blog, so I am once again actively blogging. The main reason I hadn't written for months is because I was just too busy living my musings to have time to write them. Isn't that what life is suppose to be about? Sure I have dabbled in watercolor painting, actually taking great pleasure in my efforts. And I continue to put health and fitness high on my priority list, but you can only say so much about routines that don't really change that much from day to day.
I have been looking for many years to find my niche, where I can make my impact on my small corner of the world. Then it came to me. When reading the letter from the House of Bishops to the congregation about our responsibility to the environment, I came to the conclusion that there is something that I can do that actually isn't being done, but really needs to be done. When ever I have thought there was a place for me, I found that there were others already involved and had that area covered. Just serving as another helper on some bodiy elses project isn't my idea of finding my place in the world. But, no one has done anything about increasing the recycling capabilities of Lewistown, our summer home.
So, there is my mission for my little tiny corner of the world. We have begun a project to recycle plastic in Lewistown and the surrounding area. This will be a model program that can be used in similiar communities in size and distance. So, in addition to my usual sage thoughts, I will be sharing the progress, disappointments, and efforts I go through to get this program off the ground this year. If anyone has any suggestions or expertise to share to help me, it would be greatly accepted. I'm starting from ground zero and my learning curve is huge.
