I am an eco-artist, and advocate for decreased plastic usage through my work.
People are so limited by the labels other put on them. Most labels aren't truly accurate.
I suppose that I am doing this project to say, yes, I am that label. Here's the truth about it and here's why it's actually a compliment.
I guess I try to do small 'good deeds' all the time. I feel that the little things always count. Something as small as holding a door for someone or smiling at them can make their day. One time when I hadn't thought much of it I was at Walmart in a small town in Vermont and there was a person behind me who only had one of those Campbell handshake soups and a drink and I let them go ahead of me. Little did I know they were late for class less than a block a way and they were quite appreciative.
As for my labels of choice I feel that those are reasons people may talk about me. I currently work for a non-profit organization where I am able to use all of these labels in my work. I am a peer support worker/peer outreach counselor.
