One time all you would ask is "what came first the chicken or the egg"; but in these days and times you have to look at your eggs and wonder if they are contaminated with salmonella. Profits and genetic alteration of our growing process, as well as, slack regulation of our food production chain has put the consumer at the behest of the food producers. I long for the time when we produced and grew our own foods and animals on family farms. Some of us may remember going to the "country" and visiting our relatives. Walking their vegetable fields, or climbing in their orchards, or chasing the chickens in the coop; these experiences, for some, are a distant memory. For others there is no memory at all. But, we use to live in simpler times. We use to live closer to nature. It seems the further away from nature we get; the more distant God is. Take a ride into the country, drive through the mountains; never forget that "the earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof and all they that live therein."
