This past Saturday evening (19th September 2020), I de-activated my Facebook account. I’ve been wanting to do it for a while, but was doing an online course that had a corresponding Facebook group and I wanted to see that through. It’s not been an easy decision.
My inbox and Facebook feed has recently been filled with sale after sale after sale. Buy a mindfulness course, buy a neuro-science course, buy a spirituality course, buy a yoga course, buy a Qi Gong course, buy a meditation course. But then it suddenly hit me, why do I have to pay for all of this stuff?
So this is the end of my first month of trying to be a little more sustainable, or at the very least buying less. It was also far easier for the first part of January as we were in Albufeira and there is nothing to buy and I mean nothing. Coming back to Bristol was more of a challenge,
So, this is how it goes. We get invited for an evening out. The day of the evening out I have to sleep in the afternoon in order to have the sheer oomph to get through the evening. Then I get ready, we go out and ‘sociable Steph’ arrives.
I'd intended for this blog post to be about 20 things I was going to do for 2020. I started 19 things for 2019, but admittedly, lost enthusiasm half way through the year. But, I thought, 2020 has a nice ring, so thought I'd dust my list off and try again. But then I started wondering as I pondered over my list, trying to find 20 things to do this year, 'Is this actually the way to go'?
It's a Wonky Life
