I
love bookstores.
Recently
I stumbled on the isle with all those ‘Dummy Books.’
Here
are some that I remember,
Remodeling
your Bathroom for Dummies …. It’s about time!
Auto
Repair for Dummies …. Hmmm … maybe.
Fashion
for Dummies …. Is that a hint?
Solar
Power for Dummies …. Great Idea!
Religion
and Inspiration for Dummies … THAT should be interesting!
I
have decided to write my own 'How to book for Dummies.'
Here
it is:
How to Change
the World
for dummies (like me)
by me
The
average dummy book has about 368 pages.
Mine
will be a bit shorter.
I’ll
stick with two words.
‘SHOP wisely.’
The
end!
This is what I learned, while writing my book:
If
I want fresh air and clean water and healthy land, I need to shop smaller cars,
smaller homes and smaller toys.
If
I want my money to go so schools and roads and libraries, I need to shop ‘Made
in America’.
If
I want to continue to baby my dog, because I just LOOOOOVE animals, I need to stop buying tortured pigs from
supermarkets …. (who happen to be a lot smarter than my dog!)
If
I want wonderful little stores that make me want to hug a stranger, then I need
to start my Christmas shopping THERE today!
Which
brings me to the best part of my entire book:
The
official, new and improved, NUMBER ONE excuse for going shopping!
Change
the World.
Go
SHOPPING!
Yours
truly, Bena
By
the way, I need to reduce my blog from twice a week to once a week. Juggling life AND a blog is turning out more
complex than anticipated.
Oh,
one more thing. I’d love to know what you have
decided to shop lately to 'Change the World.' No pressure …. just an invitation to press that ‘Links to this blog’ button .... By the way, showing off is ENTIRELY welcome!

So very true, Bena, I will change my habbits, at least I want to. Please send a reminder once in a while.
