Interdependence

There's not a lot I can do to make the world a better place. I'm grateful that I can at least volunteer at the humane society a few hours a week. And maybe I can brighten people's day a little bit, check in on folks, share something nice.

I stopped at got a hamburger yesterday, and thought about all the infrastructure and people that allow us to have fast food. Thanks to the farmers who grow the vegetables and care for the animals. Thanks to the people who keep the eletricity going and allow for fresh, clean water to come through our pipes. Thanks to the folks who make the roads, and design them to be safer, and to the truck drivers who deliver things. Thanks to fast food workers, janitors, cooks. Thanks to food-safety inspectors. Thanks to the people who made my car and those who change the oil. There are people who design and make the packaging, and garbage handlers who deal with the trash. Everyone working together. Interdependency.
