The fact is, yes,&amp;nbsp;we can live green. We do have the time, the energy and the resources to infuse green practices into our everyday living, in a practical and harmonious manner for us.

As a result, more people are interested in being “green.” Exactly what is being “green” you ask? We found a pretty good answer on Yahoo.com that states “Green is a generic term used to label any product or action meant to help the environment.” Many people are confused and feel that helping the environment is a difficult and expensive task. In actuality there are simple steps you can take to be green, without expending a lot of money or time. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is your definition of being green, and what steps do you take to conserve and help our environment – be green?

Chicken Little would be right at home with the fear running rampant in the world we have made up. Despite the declared end of the recession by Warren Buffet, the roller coaster ride continues. Last week stocks again were pushed to one-year highs as the market continued its rally. Then markets closed down as a surprising housing report regressed to show a decline in home sales last month. Unemployment claims were down mid September, then up again at the end of the month. Other currencies continue to gain value over the dollar, pushing the dollar out of its long held position as the base currency for the world. World economics will never go back to the good old days, where the US was the pack leader. With all this perceived chaos set in motion, what kind of investment strategy is best? What’s a sister to do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Join us on Saturday October 10, 2009 at 7:00 p.m. on our Blog Talk Radio show with our special guest, Patricia Stallworth, financial specialist and author,  for tips on how to manage and invest money, especially in difficult economic times.

It provides the material necessities and wants that make this life comfortable.  While money in itself can't bring you joy, the perception of the lack of money isn't any fun either. People who have lots of money try to maintain and increase it.  While people who feel they don't have enough money, and want more, worry about how to get it .  Either way, dis-ease about money leads to fear and disappointment.  Is it the money that we want, or is it the feeling of ease that financial freedom brings?
