This was an interesting exercise for me, and I'm glad resources are provided--it's nice to know what I'm looking at has been vetted, rather than doing a google search.  While I felt some of the value conflict examples were a little extreme, I found that to be interesting and can see where that leads to stress and problems.

I can remake my accessories into new accessories or combine them in different ways.  

This doesn't surprise me, but does make me sad. I do feel that I have gotten better about not wasting food this year as I have been home a lot more. I'd much rather spend that money on updating my home, which I have been able to do this year as well :) 

I picked this option because indigenous communities and culture not only stress balance, but also sustainability.  They did, and do, have a an extreme appreciate for the environment and what it provides to them--while recognizing how hard they had to work for those resources, so not wasting resources was critical.  I loved the resource provide with the map and the way it should regions and overlapping areas.  I was taken with how many names are used in modern day culture--I'm willing to guess many don't realize that connection, or respect it.

To be a just and sustainable society we have to be inclusive and equal--regardless of sexual identity, race, sex, gender, or any of the other things that make us different.  Having differences is a good thing--as long as everyone is on equal footing.

I've always wanted to can, but have been scared of not doing something right and causing issues.  I did some research and this year I canned salsa and tomato juice, as well as some dill pickles.  They all taste great and I'm excited to have them in the winter!
Next up: homemade bread!

Forgiveness is not for the other person it is always for you--to set yourself free. We all have enough trouble to handle in our daily lives so why carry around the extra burden of resentments and hurts?

It can be so easy to be discouraged and defeated if we just look at our circumstances. I just had a major disappointment last week but stopped myself and listed the things that I did have that I was grateful for.
