Welcome!

I'm a South African living in Boston, USA. I am most interested in the idea of responsibility -- responsibility leading to social change. This could mean growing plants without space (the inspiration for the original title), learning to eat well in Boston, being knowledgeable about the resources the average American uses, understanding inequality at a local and global scale. I think it would be awesome to live out Micah 6:8: "And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."
