How does one start their first post in a new blog? However I want to I guess, as this is really my sounding board, my "notebook" if you will, for all of the research and inspirational ideas I come across. It is a place to put my thoughts, to put my findings and beliefs so in essence it is my own personal "not-so-personal" journal.

I became inspired to start this journaling process while reading The Prince of Wales' book titled Harmony. Have you ever had a reading experience where you read exactly what you are feeling inside? It's the weirdest thing to read something that someone else has written that "fits" you perfectly.

Anyway, this book Harmony, is essentially about restoring things to a healthier, purposeful, productive, and harmonious state. By "things" I mean the food we eat, the energy we use, the resources we are exhausting. Being on my own personal journey of creating a healthy and wholesome life for my family, this book really hit the mark for me. It echoes the importance of things like organic farming and eating organically and sustainably and the need to begin restoration of our earth's resources instead of continuing to deplete them. It even talks about the importance of spirituality in one's life, something that as a society as a whole we have turned away from and eliminated from our day to day lives. To be honest, I am only about 1/2 way through, but it has inspired, truly inspired me.

So here I am. If you would like to take a look at the reviews or purchase your own copy, you can head over to Amazon and take a look (it's at an amazing 11.99 price for a hardcover right now!). Or, check your local library (like I did!)
