Writer Wednesday Round-Up #37: Big Ideas
To participate, simply post a blog on that theme, but tag that post with "writer wednesday" (within quotes, all lowercase) before the following Wednesday at 12PM EST.
Related: [FORUMS] Learning: Zoomers How-To: Blog When Writer Wednesday hits, we then do the following:
- Round-up all the participating entries in a entry such as this.
- Feature all the participating entries in our Friday newsletter that goes directly to our over 12,000 members.
- Feature all the participating entries via our Twitter with the popular #writerwednesday hashtag.
- Select our personal favourite that will be featured to the over 13,000 members in our Zoomers on Facebook community.
In the latest edition of this feature, we were inspired by the recent ideacity conference and the big ideas that were discussed.
After teaching overseas for twenty- five years, my husband John and I retired and moved to the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island. Our "Big Idea" was to make loads of new friends during the first few months. After all, aren't Canadians renowned for being the "friendliest" people?
I had no idea what I had grown into, or what I was, until Oprah did a one hour show on the subject of Freeganism. I saw a lot of people like myself employing anti-consumerist lifestyles as a way of life. We are called Freegans and use a stew of various ideas to create things, as we feel our society wastes too much money.
How much time do we spend waiting for the Big Idea? You know what I'm talking about. The Big Idea, the Silver Bullet, that one Big Thing, your Prince Charming of an Idea that will sweep you off your feet and assure you'll live happily ever after.
