Helping Keep Portland Weird

Yesterday I attempted to write a blog about the Stately Lady needing a new life, and prior to that about looking beyond the “bad” news and helping make someone’s day.  Today I was at first stymied – what will today bring?.  As I perused my Facebook friends I discovered that there was a richness right before me. – and in some inspiring and creative ways.  I discovered how Marion was contributing to our economy and society by her innovative desire to help people reclaim materials and re-use them rather than throw them away – how Bill, a developer and builder was pulling out all the stops to not only Go Green, but to bring new life to an area of Portland with his development of Mississippi Avenue Lofts,  And then I ran across how Dan, an executive producer of Pic.tv how he was working hard to help link people to sources, to information and more importantly what providing a resource for them to make an impact within their communities.  Amazing – right before me, and around me, there are people who are using Common Sense.  Thank you!!

Become inspired today.  Listen to what One-Economy.com is doing – discover Pic.tv – discover before you just remodel and make your way to the local hardware store what is possible when you work with Marion at reclaimdfinishes.com.   And then end your day by listening to the incredible insights of those at Bring It Home America.  Young at heart people of all ages are getting it - they are making a difference and changing communities.  Isn’t it common sense?
