As I watched an airplane at a distance circle around and spray toxic chemicals on agriculture farm land.  I started to worry which way the wind was blowing.  I little bit of that in my sysytem means liver dysfunction .  I wish I could love spring, but spring to me means way to many chemicals being applied to the land of the United States.  It means conventional farms spraying tons of chemicals.   It means cities spraying around playgrounds, schools spraying and counties spraying.  People spraying chemicals all around their houses.  Moss chemicals, lawn fertilizers, weed and feed, herbicides, 2-4-D etc.. The list of chemicals that will be used this spring across the US is a Sad and Depressing list.   Here are my thoughts today and every spring.  My name is Sue, I am the canary of this world.  I am the bee, the frog the butterfly and the bat.  I am here to represent them and myself.  I am here  to ask you to think about your purchases that you make.  When you buy something that is not organic, that means you have been a part of a sysytem that poisons the land, the animals, the insects, the water and the air.  It means you are supporting something that poisons humans.  Humans like me are affected immediately.  I speak the language that you understand. The rest of the nature world speaks to you but you do not listen.  They speak to you in deaths, die offs and sickness.  But you still do not listen.  I have the voice, to express to you  we are at a critical point.  I am a canary, and I get sick from the toxins in the environment and there are others like me. A canary in the  coal mine represents life or death.  Every year I speak of this.  I can only hope that our eyes we keep reading and your ears will  listen.  You can't say you are interested in being sustainable if you do not eat all organic.  You can not say you care about the bees dying off if you support toxic conventional agriculture, dye your hair, paint your nails, use any products that have petroleum and synthetics in them.  I think you are getting my point.  I might even be offending you.  But if you are offended it is because I have hit a sore spot. And you know that you contribute to poisoning this world.  Concerned for China and it's people?  I would hope we are all concerned for them.  After all, we are the consumers who purchase the many things that are not needed that are made in China.  Therefore we are a part of the toxic air pollution that is going on over there.  We are a part of the deaths in China that are happening  due to the extreme pollution.  Again you can change the world by what you purchase.  As spring approaches, I can't help but notice all the chemicals that are being applied to the land on a daily basis.  With topics like sustainability, bee deaths, water pollution and cancer rates at a all time high you would think we would make laws to stop these insane practices of spraying toxic chemicals on our food, in the water ways and on the food that is grown for animals.   When you see yellow and orange around the trees, the waterways on highways, in the farm fields, around the hazelnut orchards, fruit orchards, nut orchards you know they have applied toxic cancer causing chemicals.   I have also learned in my county the Yamhill County Soil and Water Conservation District will use and does use toxic chemicals (Herbicides).  WT.....????   Folks Herbicides are toxic...   Here I am again, in the 8th year in a row, standing on my soapbox, yelling PLEASE CHANGE, THINK ABOUT YOUR PURCHASES, YES YOU ARE APART OF THIS PROBLEM AND PLEASE CHANGE BEFORE WE HAVE A SILENT SPRING.......

UNSUSTAINABLE - TOXIC TO US ALL 

UNSUSTAINABLE - TOXIC TO US ALL 

PAY THE ORGANIC FARMER............... 

CONVENTIONAL FARMING IS UNSUSTAINABLE - TOXIC TO US ALL 

AND

THIS COMPANY YOU SHOULD BOYCOTT.

 SAY NO TO DELMONTE

FOOD THAT GROWS SICKNESS 

Achievements don't have to be ones that were created with greed...Life is an adventure.  Depending on what the adventure is depends on the choices we make. 

Contemplation of the past can aid you in making positive productive choices for the future.  Your choices affect all either positive or negative. 

Life is a a series of paths leading toward your goals, you must navigate this adventure called the ever-living "Road Of Life"  Trace in your mind the choices you've made.  Did you make these choices with the thoughts of light, peace and harmony?  It takes courage to make choices  to do what is right with  light, peace and harmony.  Did your path give your success to your goals but caused disharmony amongst many?  Was the path a path of guiding light of love and peace?

OR 

Did your path fill you with  success, a greedy heart that hoards and controls?

The Adventures of life for a happy heart, soul and spirit require you to think about the chains of consequence

Trace the threads of consequences in your life.  If you followed the adventurous path of disharmony then the impact of the decisions you made will affect ALL, including your heart soul and spirit.  Success from greed gives darkness to ones heart, soul and spirit.   Success from greed, gives a fake happiness and that fake happiness hides the nagging unhappiness that is  an empty spot inside you and will haunt  you forever even on your death bed, unless it is resolved.   

The impact that you made from disharmony, deceit, greed and lies will ripple around every action that was made based on the the decision you took. 

For your heart, soul and spirit it is important to resolve such actions that affected others in a negative  way.  It is time to take the adventurous path of harmony, light and peace.  It will ripple around others in a positive way.  

It only takes one step down this positive path to heal what karma you have attracted and to build courage to keep on moving.   What you don't want is to create an empty spot, this empty spot  will run you into a fatigued unhappy self, lost in a desert of voices that haunt you, saying take more, take more.  

It is up to you to end a corrupt situation that was created by you and turn it into a peaceful one.  This will fill your heart with joy, it will give your soul and spirit the love that it needs and heal it,  Therefore you will not be running a never ending race to nowhere but Hell....

Achievements do not have to be ones that were created with greed, it was never yours to begin with.  

Be the one bud flowering, in its own time.  

. 

This message is to all the corporate greedy people, the evil politicians,  the workers of Monsanto, the selfish people out there, the ones that hoard, the bullies out there,  it is time to stop. Not just for us, but for you to.  

 My latest research has lead me to some serious thinking about what new changes I need to make in my life, my family's life and my animals.   What is happening to our food system at an incredible rate is more than sad. The corporate food corruption alone gives my heart to much anger. On days like these I can not help but think being a sheelple would make life seem so grand. Ignorance may be bliss, but, it gives nothing but a sad spirit inside that has been broken and only finds water by being led. 

In our family life Easter, and any other holiday, has become a non-toxic holiday.   

At this point in our lives we are poised between opposite forces, light and dark.   The "Dark Side" would be a normal Easter holiday with plastic baskets, plastic eggs, plastic toys, toxic dyes,to much toxic candy, loads of toxic food coloring, hams full of nitrates and a whole lot of non-organic food.  

The light side would be making changes that are healthy and good for the earth, yourself and your family.  

To me Easter gives the meaning of fertility (the symbol of the egg),  Fertility, which leads to birth therefore it is a time to create new opportunities for positive change.  It is a time to be receptive,active and conscious. I will give birth to my actions that come from my heart. 

Ask yourself what you wish to give energy to.  

Where will you put your focus? Dark or light?

What can you change for the better?

What actions can you make that will help the spread of good will and love in the world? 

Our Easter day Plan:

Environmental Goal:  Worked 1 hour on cutting scotch broom.  We did this to keep the logging company from spraying toxic chemicals to kill it.  

Eggs:  Organic eggs, dyed with red onions skins, turmeric,wild violets and thyme.  

Food;   Supported the local farmers and bought organic chicken and veggies.  

Family:  Dinner together with candle light and music

New Life Goals Set 

Boxed Alternative Milks

 We will not be buying anymore oat milk, hemp milk or any other alternative milk in a carton.  Because the cartons are bad for the environment and we found out the company's are putting ingredients that are excitotoxins in them.  They also have "Neotame".  The neotame does not have to be listed in the ingredients, see links below.   

Boycotting

We will not be setting foot in a Whole Foods store ever again.  They are traders and hypocrites. 

GMO ALFALFA = NO DAIRY FOR US

We also made a big decision that was not easy to make  and very sad.   That decision is to not buy any organic dairy (or any other dairy product) unless it comes from a very small local organic farmer.   This is not going to be easy because of how our government bullies small organic dairy farmers.   The sad part is a long story and I will put the link below.  I encourage you to read it.

A Challenge For All Humans

 I challenge you to take a stance and not buy any dairy in any form from the store for the next two months.  

We need to hit the big corporate food companies in the pocket book.  If we want a real change this HAS TO BE DONE.  Otherwise our food sources are going to get more contaminated.  After they contaminate the organic food, they will go and shut down all small farmers.  

After that they will tell you what you can and cannot not grow at your own house.  It is a matter of time.  Remember "For those who control the food supply will control the human race".
