Goodbye Year of Nothing New, Hello 2011


And so I say goodbye to a year of nothing new…
and hello to a new year with gained knowledge and habits.

This year has been a challenge. Not only because of this project, but in general. I have lost and found love, myself, and a new direction in life.

I am so appreciative to you, Stacey, for joining me in this endeavor. Your posts and comments have been inspiring and supportive, have made me feel connected and grateful to see that someone else thinks and cares in a similar capacity. Your work as a yoga teacher and friend have always lifted me and shifted my thinking. Thank you.

People have asked me if I will continue to not purchase anything new in the coming year. They’ve also asked me what my new project will be in 2011. I have no answer other than: what we learn, we carry with us, and I have learned so much.

This project has meant a great deal to me, as have all of you who have followed. Thank you for reading. I hope you have felt encouraged and challenged to think about your own behaviors and lifestyle in an alternative way, to save and conserve personally, and to gain a greater understanding of what we consume globally.

Here’s to 2011!
-Courtney
