Day 2478: 2017 Goals – Goal #13: Meeting Ella Constantinides-Leite

“No road is long with good company.” Turkish Proverb

 

It’s 1 : 14 PM on day 2478 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read Psalm 16: 8 have breakfast and promote my 50 New Feet Campaign benefiting MiracleFeet – total raised  $1 335 only $11 165 more to raise in 356 days to help 50 kids with clubfoot (winners never quit and quitters never win God will help me help 50 kids walk even though I myself cannot walk I’m going to make this happen i don’t care how many times I’m ignored or told no there billions of people in the world and it is my mission to find the one’s who will be willing and able to help me).

 

Yesterday I had the honour of meeting  Ella Constantinides-Leite (meeting Ella was actually #13 on my 2017 Goals list (no jokes)), Candy Tothill Kruger and some of the girls from Miss Earth South Africa. Thank you Ella for the words of wisdom, knowledge and so many laughs. You are the embodiment of grace and love and what it truly means to be a team player. I LOVE YOU very much and will forever do what i can to help you in all that you wish to accomplish. A HUGE thanks also  to Tsogo Sun for being such a great supporter of Miss Earth South Africa we LOVE you guys.

Day 2412 : Earth Day 2017

How we treat the environment is a reflection of how much we love ourselves–that’s what I’ve realized.

 

It’s 11 : 19  AM on day 2412 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, have breakfast, read Psalm 103: 2   and learn a new word – Definitions for jammy
British Informal. very lucky. 2.British Informal. pleasant; easy; desirable: He has a jammy job.

 

Today being Earth Day it’s a perfect time to pause and reflect on our impact on the planet the Earth is such a beautiful place it’s our job to keep it that way for generations yet to come. Thank you to Miss Earth South Africa and Generation Earth who work every single day to preserve and protect Mother Earth (thank you guys for making every day Earth Day).

Day 2047: Earth Day 2016

“As we celebrate #EarthDay we must also acknowledge individual role we play in building a sustainable future for all, forever.” – Catherine Constantinides

 

It’s 12 : 07 PM on day 2047 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read Proverbs 13, have breakfast, learn one new thing –  moss grows predominantly on the north side of trees depends on where you live. “There is a tendency for moss to grow on the northern side of a tree—in the northern hemisphere,” he says. “In the southern hemisphere mosses would have a tendency to grow on the south, shady, side of trees.”–  and work on my 25 Smiles Campaign – raised $5 506 only $744  more to raise by 10 Jan 2017  (SO SO SO GRATEFUL to everyone who has supported this campaign so far :)  ).

 

Today is Earth Day – a day that aims to raise environmental consciousness throughout the world – being environmentally conscious is not about saving the planet it’s about saving ourselves because at the end of the day there can be no people without planet (thank you Ella for making me realize this I really get it) so if we were smart we would tread lightly on the Earth. Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. Respect. Happy Earth Day everyone.

 

For tips on how to tread lightly on the Earth visit the Green Tips page on the Miss Earth South Africa website. Shoutout to Catherine, Ella, Carla, Ilzé  and all the other wonderful women at Miss Earth South Africa thanks for all the trees planted and all the other awesome stuff you guys do your legacy will endure forever.

Day 1808: Happy Birthday Catherine Constantinides

“My message to women during Women’s Month and every day of the year is simple; “Women empower, girls compete!” Strive to empower and inspire other women and remember that by lighting somebody else’s candle, it takes no light away from the one you are holding. Never be scared to give credit and praise where it is due.” – Catherine Constantinides, [#WomenInBiz] Nurturing nature, Q&A with Catherine Constantinides

 

It’s 12 : 11 PM on day 1808  of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray, read Mark 14,    publish my Disability of the Day feature,  learn one new thing – Tigers live alone and aggressively scent-mark large territories to keep their rivals away.  –   have breakfast,  and  promote my Educate Generations campaign –Tom Baldwin of Early & Baldwin Solicitors   donated $20 yesterday (thanks Tom you’re ongoing support means the world to me) which brings my total raised to a staggering $4 621 so far (thanks SO MUCH God and everyone I don’t know what I did to deserve such amazing support from everyone around the world I am sincerely humbled by the world’s generosity the amount somebody donated is of little importance to me (although the more the better LOL 🙂 ) the fact that people give the money they worked hard for to help me make a difference is what really means a lot to me 🙂 .

 

Today is the birthday of the extraordinary Catherine Constantinides she’s a business mogul, humanitarian, environmentalist, Lead SA Executive and Executive Director of Miss Earth South Africa by day and a mother all the time Catherine’s accomplishments are probably ten pages long but what I admire most about her is the way she lives I am constantly inspired by her passion, sense of purpose and focus and humbled by her humility. Happy Birthday Catherine I think you’re very kickass (whenever you decide to run for President of our beautiful country please know that I will be first in line at the polling station voting for you because I truly believe that your intention is to make South Africa and the world a better place).
