To Touch The Earth

One day i'd really one to raise food for myself, planting the trees, seeding them, watering them then at last picking them by my own hands. How wonderful it would be to feel the sacred connection with the earth every time i nourish myself. To feel how 'real' apple taste like, how 'real' tomato feels and looks like. It feels really different! The feeling! Eating an apple dished in a restaurant with eating an apple that we pick out ourself from nature.
By adopting our conventional eating system, we tend to miss our sacred connection with nature, we often forget to appreciate and be grateful of mother Earth and all her nourishments. I'm sure that we would not take for granted as much as we do right now if we have the chance to touch nature.
The feeling of separateness, alienation from our own mother, the Mother Earth is one of the major cause of our abuse of her. When we are caged for food, we are alienated and isolated from our own mother, we no longer play with her like what our ancestors used to do. People said we are on modern age, but i see how the so called modernity is far much left behind than the ways of our old ones.
My friend, just try planting a fruit tree yourself, and you'll get what i mean here. Just feel it...
Right now...I feel like missing her...I want to touch and embrace her, my beloved Mother Earth... but yet i am caged here and there, due to the construction of this so called 'modern' society. I'd want to live out with nature like how naturally people should live, but yet i've tasks here on earth to do before i can bath myself on all those privileges, which seems to me are much more luxurious than the so called luxury that common people dream of.
Perhaps now is the time for us to consider re-setting up our society in a whole new way, and it all starts from one people dreaming of a thing, another dreaming of the same thing, and another one and another one, all working it all out together.
