I haven't voiced my opinion on anything on my blog as I use it as a refuge because I often have to air my opinions to my students and my own children! Having said that,my 13 year old daughter has just started a blog and she recently wrote about graffiti and she was quite passionate about it-I am so proud of her!<br /><br />Thanks for this great post!<br /><br />Best wishes,<br />Natasha.Natasha in Ozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17975487981963489572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089729732491247582.post-61235549668599796742010-06-11T20:25:40.800-07:002010-06-11T20:25:40.800-07:00You go girl!

We should be talking (blogging) as sisters - sharing openly and honestly.<br /><br />My husband & I had the opportunity to build a house ourselves. Total cost of the house, a shed, the off-grid electrical system, a cistern & septic system = $42K. We incorporated many green technologies as we built. Living off-grid begins with examining what we are using and what we really need - which is a good way for anyone to reduce costs & usage waste whether they are off-grid or not. When we use less, there is less demand for more oil. When we speak up, we can move energy in the direction of clean, reusable sources.<br /><br />Unfortunately, when I blog "green ideas", people leave comments with excuses as to why they cannot participate in ideas like downsizing or making green choices. So, the only thing I know to do is to share how I live & include gentle green thoughts.<br /><br />It shouldn't take a disaster and devasting after-the-fact results to wake people up!<br /><br />I look forward to reading about the changes in your blog.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />ZuzuAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089729732491247582.post-83510309666388417732010-06-10T20:46:09.025-07:002010-06-10T20:46:09.025-07:00i'm sorry,everything cannot be about the prett...i'm sorry,everything cannot be about the pretty things. you have to take the good with the bad. that's just way it is. my hubby says,"they can go to the moon and do experiments up there and come back. but, they cannot stop an oil leak.

Blogging needs to be authentic and that includes the good, the bad and the ugly. <br /><br />One of the most moving posts I ever read was from a woman who open up (an I mean laid it on the table) about a period of her life that was very dark. Because of waht she wrote, I was able to help someone else in a similar position. <br /><br />Now that is an authentic, real blogger.Razmatazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02757164543598076420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089729732491247582.post-45210772788841534622010-06-10T12:54:23.019-07:002010-06-10T12:54:23.019-07:00oh sweet Z...i am humbled. i am touched. i am hono...oh sweet Z...i am humbled. i am touched. i am honored.... i was digging in the dirt today at a client's home. covered in sweat and mud, and bug spray and sun sreen, doogie doo stuck to my boot, feeling battered and bruised from hard laborious work, feeling sluggish from the heat and oppressive air, wanting to quit, questioning why i do this work.....when suddenly, i was startled by a quick moving snake inches from my gloved hand.....my adrenaline kicked back in. i recharged. i stood up. i laughed and looked around at all the beauty of this wonderful garden and realized it is worth all the struggle.<br /><br />thank you my friend,<br />erinerin's art and gardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17808723849785207747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089729732491247582.post-60074570754580004382010-06-10T11:37:07.598-07:002010-06-10T11:37:07.598-07:00I agree with you.
