Lughnasa Waning Harvest Moon
Just back from the grocery store. Kate went along, a nice treat.
On so many levels the grocery store speaks to privilege. We have food, fresh food, all year round. Kate and I can buy food all year round. The U.S. has fields of grain, feeder lots with cattle and pigs, chickens and turkeys, fruit grows in many places, nuts, too. Vegetables grow within miles of every major metro area and within them, too.
As citizens of a powerful country, albeit one in economic struggles, we have so many things available to us, things we consider normal, that are extraordinary in most of the world.
It’s not to early to start thanks giving.
