Detachment from process kills understanding

We are detached from so many processes in modern life, the raising of animals, the deadly nature of predators, our supply chains

From the production line of how our products get made

From what it’s like having to be the one to clean up the messes we leave

From having to see the aftermath of ghosting someone or leading them on

There’s so much escape readily available to us so we’ve taken on the luxury of not taking responsibility. It made us all to believe that it’s “Someone else’s mess” So we litter, and play short term games in relationships, and don’t trust each other. We avoid having to speak to each other. This isn’t living.
