Good day to all! New goals for the new year - it should be continued journey to good purpose in past years, mostly. This is a concept that has a beginning but no end. But most importantly, it's never too late to start! My mother taught me when I was still quite small, to keep order and cleanliness both inside and outside, inside the person - that is the heart and soul.
And inside me there is always something going on, when I see people walking down the street and throw the remains of plastic bags and small pieces of paper out of the food right at your feet! A special containers in which garbage is placed and who is standing in the street, they see? but this small example, but very clear! I appeal to all, let us ourselves, each one of us would be a good example for the other, which is next! Like Teresa, who was able to organize a general matter and mention of her name is associated only with something good, generous, beautiful. kirakarelka@gmail.com
Wow, what a generous give-away to start the new year. Love it! Anyway, one of my goals is to try Tai Chi again, now that my knee is repaired.
Keep up the great work, you guys are awesome.
Hugs, Julie Andrea

Hi! My goal for this year is to stay close to the mother nature as long as I can. For this my goal I made a plan to go vegan to help animals and the Earth, buy whole foods and organic products just like your wonderful bags. With your help I hope that I would be one step closer to reaching my goal, thereby closer to the very nature!

This year I want to get better at collecting the litter that seems to be all over our roads, parking lots, parks, etc., instead of simply being annoyed by its existence. I already collect some, but I need to make a concerted effort to do more.

Dear Green Bag Lady and Friends,
Another give away!!!!
How exciting. Count me in.
I am committed to recycling as much aluminum as I can. And encourage other to do the same. It is such a simple way to help the environment and keep the world a cleaner place.
I want you to know how much I like the "Crypton" Bag I just received. It is nice and large, and the material is exceptional. You give away some awesome gifts. Thank you so much. Keep up the fine work you are doing. You really are making a difference in the world.
