I just watched the movie food inc. I will admit it was a hard movie to watch. The treatment of the animals, the workers and the farmers was awful!
I cannot comprehend how we can treat one another the way we do. Where is our compassion for one another. For the creatures, and for the plant life of the earth? Why do we let money and wealth in the way of helping one another?
We are a nation that thrives on getting ahead. Of being better and having more than the next person. We are hurting ourselves, and the other beings that reside on this earth, by our greed and selfishness and non caring attitude. It is such a tragedy!
I for one, after watching this movie, am definitely going as organic as possible.I have been doing it somewhat, worrying about price, but not anymore.
I believe the animals are treated better. Being give a better life out in the field, to eat grass, and enjoy the sunshine. And I believe that human beings when in close contact with the soil, the plants and the animals have a greater car and concern for the planet and life as a whole.
I know, because I had a garden and it felt wonderful!
Digging up the soil, the fresh smell of the earth flowing through my senses. The joy of planting the seeds, and tending them and watching them grow to maturity gave me such a feeling of satisfaction and completion. I wanted to share my wealth and bounty with everyone.
Anyway I am glad that I watched it. It opened my eyes and enlightened me.
