Organic is about you feeling good

Feeling good, feeling healthy is one of life’s most valuable and greatest benefits. Like all things that are worthwhile, good health takes some effort and expense. It is far easier and cheaper initially to use chemical short-cut food and cosmetics, but in the long run the chemicals rob people of the most precious things in their lives, their health and the health of their loved-ones. In a very real way, cheap is deadly expensive.

Organic is about human kind’s prosperity

Everything good for us originally comes from the dirt. Everyone can agree that being well-off for a day is nothing when compared to long-term prosperity. But our modern, short cut to instant abundance is destroying the foundation of tomorrow’s abundance, and instead is guaranteeing future scarcity of the healthy things we will always need. When we support ‘commercial’ food and cosmetics, we’re paying for agricultural practices that are sucking the life out of soils and leaving dead muck behind.

Organic is about spiritual responsibility

‘Cheap’ and ‘convenience’ describe some of the overriding features of everyone’s retail shopping, and to a degree our social experience. There is nothing wrong with wanting physical stuff; after all, we’re flesh and blood physical beings. We need stuff. However, there is a deep un-wellness that comes from wanting far more than you need. The marketing we’re surrounded by promises the illusion of happiness if you just buy more, but instead all that cheap stuff delivers depression in the end. In this way, we’re being coaxed and manipulated to self-harm. Finding out who we are, and what we really need is our spiritual responsibility. All of us owe it to ourselves to find real happiness.
