WHY NOW ?
Learn. Do. Become.
Think outside the box
We live in the 21st century. We have NO EXCUSES when it comes to accessing information and knowledge. So do your research : open your eyes ! The way most of us live is NOT SUSTAINABLE. Think outside the box.
Courage and determination
Now. If it was that easy to change habits drilled into us for centuries... we would know. Like everything in life, it requires focus and determination at the start. Then courage ... to fight the consensus and peer pressure. We have done it this way for so long, why should we change now ? Because before, we did not know it was that bad...
Mother Nature Powers
Keen to give it a go and become a messenger ? Start by learning how to live in respect of yourself, others and Mother Nature. Be her ambassadors. Remind yourself and others how we should live, in harmony with nature. Body, soul and spirit united to show or re-learn sustainable ways.
Be the change
Welcome to Take The Plunge Now ! I am Valérie. I always travelled and enjoyed meeting different people and discovering new cultures.
I always thought travelling through our world was like travelling through time. Let me explain.
Born and bred in France, I am really grateful of my childhood and up-bringing. My parents did a top job to teach us to follow our dreams and believe that nothing was impossible as long as you did your best to get there.
So when travelling in some countries, I felt like we were back in previous centuries…
In some countries in Africa or Europe, where everyone education is not a given.. where no-one has a car so they share the one bus crossing towns and fill it up with 3 times the number of people….where clothes you wear don’t matter because the main goal for the day is to go collect water at the nearest well…. where women don’t have a say and would never be travelling the world like I do…. There I felt like I was back in the 18th century back home !!!
or back to the future, where people spend sooo much time sitting at their computer desk, they look grey in the face, where people eat so much crap food, they feel depressed all the time, where people won’t look at each other in the eyes, because their brain is numbed by constant screens exposure… There I felt like if that was the price to pay for technology and progress… evolution some of us would call it… I guess… I’d rather keep away…
Surely there is a way to bond it all together… Take the good from different places, ditch the bad and regroup !!!
My travels taught me also that each country had their wiser men and women, who kept practising their natural and local ways to live, heal, rule and respect one another. You get where I am going with this…
First I can’t repeat it enough : I am soooo grateful to have had the life I had. I am so happy about it, I feel it is my duty to remind others what life should be about. Look after yourself and respect others, educate yourself to change few things in your life that will bring us back together living in respect and harmony with ourself, others and our dear Mother Earth.
Great thoughts speak only to the thoughtful mind, but great actions speak to all mankind.
