Reconnecting With Life

It's about what you could do, what you should do. Not what you want to do. It's about what you could know, what you should know. Not what you want to know.

We don't make our own home. We don't make our own food. We don't even teach our own kids.

We are so dependent on external institutions that these basic necessities are no longer taken care of by ourselves. It's become increasingly customary to shove basic, crucial responsibilities onto institutions. Day Care, Schools, the Government, Corporations, Grocery Stores.

I suggest:

Put a little effort to provide for yourself. Do a home improvement project. Make a garment of clothing. Grow some food. Go fishing at eat what you catch. Teach your kids about something you know a lot about, or that they're interested in. Read to them. Build something of your own. Reconnect with life. Reclaim it.

Somethin you guys should check out, I love this dude:
