When
my bi-weekly garbage became two small plastic bags
The
pick up persons were worrying about their jobs!
But
when I gave them just one small grocery bag
They
were speechless, How could you do that?
I
asked myself the same question and found the answer!
It
was the result of my year long minimization effort -
Which
helped me realize how we buy unnecessary stuffs
Only
to create more garbage while hurting inside and outside!
I
started with avoiding all canned and bottled products
Graduating
to exclude processed food all-together
As
I gained confidence mastering cooking healthy elite
Garnishing
them with boiled and raw vegetables delights!
Of
course it was easier being a vegetarian
Composting
all inedible vegetables, fruits, and leftovers
Recycling
milk containers, papers, and plastic bags
All
I had as garbage were used napkins and tissue papers
Along
with packets and labels of modern grocery as bonus
In
spite of living with sixty plus free lovebirds!
I
wish I could do the same with garbages beyond my control!
Like
enormously fat newspapers with ads and coupons
Television
ads that marring news and programs blurring vision
Political
campaigns that embrace gossips wasting billions
Prison
industries that profit from influx of felons
Yellow
journalism which is polluting nations and notions
Amendments
to bi-laws that encourage logging and discriminations
Covert
intelligences that disabling overt democratic institutions
Military
spending that leading us to self destruction
Scriptures
that spreading lies for hegemony and dominations!
