Dear Friends:
What If . . . ?
This is a question I am pondering lately in the face of many reports
linking our present attitude of entitlement to the disastrous
consequences for the rest of the world, be it the environment or the
physical and mental health of society.
We are entitled to own or engage in activities that destroy our environment or mental health but carry no penalty or legal threat. We are entitled to knowingly and willingly pollute and destroy, for the sake of the “economic growth” of a few in today’s society. We are at a very critical and powerful turning point in history. We are still able to bring about change before it is too late. The tipping point in Earth’s evolution is sooo close that we are near the moment of losing our freedom to make decisions based on inner morals and spiritual consciousness.
What if we rose and demanded the banning of all recreational vehicles?
What if we rose and demanded that corporate lobbying of politicians be outlawed?
What if we rose and ended corporate interest in University funding?
What if we ended the fast food culture?
What if we replaced our virtual TV and movie culture with reality?
What if we rose and demanded an end of all pesticides, herbicides and fungicides?
What if we replaced our self centred interests with true concerns for the future of Society and Earth?
What if we regained our freedom to be responsible for ourselves?
What are we gaining by waiting for others to take the lead. We can implement change day by day . Nothing will justify, in the future, our inactions of today.
Bravo to all of those who support the return of real food from real farmers to real people.
Six months of defiance, six months of resisting, six months of courage. We are strong. Thank you so much.
My best regards to all of you . . .
Farmer Schmidt
