Can I see a Bigger Perspective?

You have probably heard a story of four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody confronting a problem. It ended up with Everybody blaming Somebody, and Nobody doing what Anyone could have.

This inspirational piece spoke to me. I had been looking for a way to go beyond my typical ways of supporting the environment. In cycling along our hike and bike path I was saddened by plastic bags caught on trees and empty soda cans and water bottles littering the trail. I remember thinking, “Why aren’t people taking more care of our environment?  Somebody really should do something about this.”

And then it hit me! I am Somebody! I made a commitment to pick up at least one piece of rubbish each time I go out on my bike. Instead of simply worrying about litter on the trail, I now notice how many other people are picking up plastic bags and soda cans! http://www.newparadigmcoaching.com/
