About 6 years ago an idea and concept came to me that would became the book Gratefully Going GREEN. There followed 5 years of growth. The conceptual seed grew into a wordy and weighty explanation of “GREEN.” This transformed into lighter yet stronger poetry enlivened by colourful whimsical illustrations - all firmly rooted in the “heart” of Going GREEN. When this growth matured and the leaves became pages, I saw that I had not only created a book but also a legacy. What did I learn from this growth of GREEN? “There’s no dream too small or no challenge too BIG.” I learned that, “ G is for Grateful,” and that… oh, I won’t tell you any more now. It will have to wait till the BIL Conference. Hope to see you there. If you just can’t wait to see Gratefully Going GREEN get a sneak peek at: www.gratefullygoinggreen.com
