Awareness of world events gives you a certain level of lucidity concerning what we’re facing. But from a metaphysical point of view, if this bitterness leads to persistent pessimism and a darkening of your heart, then despite getting politically smarter, you become spiritually dimmer.

It's imperative to concentrate our efforts on Senators right now, and to inform them accurately about the dangers of GMOs and RoundUp. They're being deceived by industry lobbyists, and this is our last (and best) chance to preserve our right to know what is in our food.
