…When you’re walking through the supermarket?

Like this all could be over in a few years? Our life of quiet convenience and ease, not having to fight or hunt for food. Lives not in constant danger.

And how will we look back on these times? They are good times. Not always, not for everyone, but for most of us. We will look back and remember people quietly going about their business, selecting which juice to buy, contemplating recipes.

I have no idea how bad things will get, or even if entire economies are going to collapse and bring Venezuela level suffering to everyone. But they might… And that thought played on my mind when I visited the supermarket to buy garlic salt and eco-friendly sandwich bags.

    I generally feel that way a lot of the time… though not as much at the supermarket, moreso when I am enjoying nature, believing so many of these species I enjoy observing will suffer a miserable and fearful extinction

      I am lucky to live somewhere that isn’t rapidly destroying nature everywhere and has pretty strong conservation laws. I cannot comprehend what’s happening in the Amazon

      I feel the same way too! I feel like this desperate need to just experience, document the nature around me before it disappears. Kinda like the vibe of the game SEASON: A letter to the future, I guess.
