In saying grace for the food we eat, thank also those who bring it to us.

Thank the soil

The plants

The children picking food in pesticide filled fields

The animals raised without light and sun and dirt and freedom

To the sun

The rain

The earth

The insects that pollinate it

The winds, the rain and snow.  

 

The humans who toil

The oil in the trucks

The trucks and truckers

The plastic it comes wrapped in.  

 

The compost it creates

The fertility of what our bodies turn it into.

The water that washes the food

The dishes

 

The human waste

We are part of wholeness

Let us be grateful.
