Readers’ place | What you want to transform in 2022

Earlier this month, we appealed to our readers to find out what they want to transform in 2022. Here’s a look at the emails we received.



Goodbye the superfluous!

While going through this pandemic which continues, we were able to note that if it was difficult to no longer socialize so much face-to-face, we could easily be satisfied with only essential goods, hence the desire to declutter our life with the superfluous. Add to the lessons to be learned from the pandemic, rising food costs: we must stop wasting. In short, we are transforming ourselves into consumers who are not only more informed, but also less impulsive and less inclined to accumulate in order to waste. The new suddenly has less appeal than the second-hand item or the second-hand item of clothing. Every choice we continue to make will have an environmental effect – at least that’s the mindset I want to see spread even further in 2022.

A little accountability

I would like to transform the idea we have of very often blaming our governments and making them responsible for fixing all the situations. Let’s go with climate change, for example. Let’s stop asking our leaders for miracle solutions and take small daily actions to change our behavior and directly influence our environment. Governments establish the major strategies, it is up to us to take action and take action. Very small changes can have a big impact, of whom we are. This approach would be applicable in several fields of activity.

Household in my treasures

I would like to turn those abandoned things that clutter my basement into useful things. These accumulated pieces of furniture, I would like to manage to paint them to transform them into useful, pretty things, giving them a little look of renewal. Those shabby, old-fashioned and oversized clothes in my closet: get rid of them once and for all, turning them without remorse into recycled creations. Souvenir jewels that I have forgotten or that I have one day tinkered with myself: I would like to quickly get rid of them and pass them on to the next. These accumulated and piled up DIY things, which I no longer serve: having the wisdom to offer them to these others who will give them a second life. My old photos accumulated: I would like to manage to classify them, to annotate them in order to transmit them to the next generation in order, in beautiful old-fashioned souvenir albums full of old treasures. Above all, I would like to transform the hours over the days: stretch them ever more so as to have a lot more time to achieve everything I dream of transforming …

I want to turn all the platform managers into… mummies. Those who seem to have all the solutions, but who are not going anywhere and not building anything positive.

School service centers

School service centers: too big, without direct links with young people and their parents and detached from local communities.
