This morning I unplugged my mobile phone charger after charging up the phone (Action 58), had a fair trade cup of tea to wake me up (Action 57) and headed off to work where I took the stairs up to the office (Action 91), and started the working day ‘aspiring to be more not earn more’ (Action 82).
That’s right, I am wolfing my way through the ‘Change The World 9 to 5’ actions! I practiced good workplace manners (Action 63) and made tea for three colleagues (Action 84). Everyone said thanks to me (Action 97). Later, I sourced my lunch from an Italian café aptly named ‘Eataly’, although I am not sure that counts as Action 51: ‘find out where your lunch has come from’, however amusing it may seem. I ate my lunch with Ella and Tori in the park (Action 67), which was delightful.
Throughout the day I became aware of how I am ‘fitting into the bigger picture’ (Action 99). The work I am currently doing for the wonderful organisation that is WAWWD will help to spread positive social and environmental messages. The phrase ‘We Are What We Do’ implies that our actions make us who we are; I took a break this afternoon (Action 66) and ate a peach, so that makes me a peach? No, that can’t be right. It means I am making small changes in my life that will positively affect the wider world. By eating that peach on my break, you won’t hear me moaning about an empty stomach and I will be less grumpy to others! I also brought a smile to others’ faces by struggling to maintain ladylike and graceful appearances whilst slurping its succulent juiciness.
On that note, until tomorrow blog-readers…
