Growing up, as much as I loved to dance (and write

A few Sundays ago my friends and I went on an epic

“A guide leaves nothing behind but her thanks.”

I grew up in guiding. I look back on my years as a Brownie, Girl Guide and Ranger fondly, and I know that the lessons and principles instilled in me during that time helped shape the adult I am today.

Today, @hazelbiz and I joined @cyen473 for a beach cleanup on La Sagesse beach. Together, Mom and I filled 4 garbage bags of trash - plastic bottles, food boxes, shoes, toothbrushes, cigarette butts, articles of clothing and a clothes hanger, and a baby diaper. Some trash had been washed ashore, the rest left behind from a lime.

I may not always make the most sustainable choices (I’m a work in progress), but I always try to leave somewhere as clean or better than I found it.

We need to put a stop to this “out of sight, out of mind” mentality we seem to have adopted lately. Throwing bottles and food boxes out of vehicles and leaving a mess behind after our beach/waterfall/wherever limes.

Some might say, “well I didn’t litter; it’s not my problem.”But hear nah, it is our problem. Because when the drains are blocked with garbage, we want to be surprised when the roads flood. And no one wants to go to a filthy beach.

So, if you’re still reading this, remember don’t litter. Take your garbage with you if there’s no bin. And leave nothing behind but your thanks. Oh, and encourage the people around you to do the same!
