This stems from my last post about a need for change in our way of life. I listed some things that I currently do, but then I started thinking about things that I can do in the future.
First of all, I want to own a boutique. I think that I should donate some clothes to Dress for Success. I also think it would be fun to own a restaurant or bakery, so I thought I could do what Panera does and donate all the unsold goods to a homeless shelter each night. I also want to have kids in a few years, so when that happens I can do my part to cut down on vehicle emissions by not buying a Hummer or minivan or other huge gas guzzling SUV as my mommy-mobile. Then I want to adopt, though I can't decide if I want to adopt within the US or internationally. I do look up to Angelina Jolie a lot for all her efforts for globalization and I adore the fact that she has such a diverse family. I feel that her children will grow up learning to be very accepting of diversity which will help their generation later on. As far as my animal shelter work goes, I would adopt every single homeless animal there is, but I know I won't be able to sufficiently care for them. I plan to adopt more animals when I own a home and no longer need to deal with rent agreements and such. Then I can continue to volunteer at shelters or can foster sick animals so they can recover and become socialized to allow for faster adoption.
I'm interested in hearing what you all think of my ideas and what you plan to do to help the world!
