  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Use Reusable Bags
    What do you do if you find yourself in the situation of needing a bag for items but don't have a reusable one with you or aren't allowed to use the one you brought? Carry things out in your hands? In a cart? Accept a disposable one? If you find yourself in this position often, what system could you put in place to try to create a successful habit of not using plastic bags?

    When I find myself without a reusable bag, I will usually either try to carry it all out of the store or find a shopping cart. I almost always refuse to use the plastic bags because I know that they are harmful to our environment and that I can get all of my items out of the store without using a plastic bag.

    When I walk instead of drive in my neighborhood, I am able to slow down and pick up on details and enjoy nature. It's nice to be able to stop and smell the flowers or hear the birds chirping. It's a good way to unwind.

    How does/can practicing gratitude keep you centered and motivated to work for a better world?

    I believe that practicing gratitude allows our minds to stay in a positive space. It also allows us to step away from ourselves and focus on others and the positive influences they are making.
