Abdicated

Why?

Why would we abdicate...

• The education of our children to those we don't know?
• The care of the earth to those whose primary goal is profit?
• Our personal peace to processes and products completely dissociated from our spirit?
• The raising of our food to people we do not know, from places we know not where, under conditions we cannot verify?
• The development of our opinions/viewpoints to those of only one worldview?
• Our attention and love to "stuff" and activity, over those we love (and love us back)?
• The devotion of our precious time to inconsequential things?

In each of those areas, we get to choose.  

When we abdicate the choice, we have chosen.
