Courage to Share

Why "Courage". I fully expect some will reject me for choosing this song to share. Yet, this is the song the Muse desires for me to offer. The Muse is that unseen powerful intelligent force that writes the songs. I craft the songs. The Muse gives me the words and music. I assemble those pieces into something to share: A Song. The inspiration for this song came from the title of a book written by a friend who owned a healthfood store. The book title is WELLNESS UPRISING. As I listened to this song I wrote 8 years ago, I realized "Wellness Uprising" describes my personal fight against the war to destroy the life that I love. For those who don't know and want to understand, genetic modification is the forcing together life-forms that are incapable of combining in Nature. The Flavor-Savor Tomato for instance came to be from forcing a bacterium, an eel and a fish with a tomato. The resulting product was then sold in grocery stores. There are hundreds of such products in our food now. Genetically modified corn is actually registered as a pesticide. It is in nearly all conventional foods and fed to cattle and chickens that are then fed to us. These creations cross-polinate with natural crops and are the main reason so many suffer from autoimmune disease. This is a war against our health, our children, our beautiful ability to thrive. It amazes me how intelligent educated people do not realize how they are poisoning themselves and their children. These are the ingredients of a popular children's cereal. Yellow dye 6 : toxic Polyetheline glycol : poly(plastic) etheline(gas used to force fruits to ripen) glycol(anti-freeze) GMO corn : registered as a pesticide High fructose corn syrup Brown sugar syrup Sugar My friend said he ate the same cereal when he was a kid and he turned out alright. But, back in the 1950s - 1970s none of these ingredients were in our food. WELLNESS UPRISING Words and music Copyright 2014 Patti Jo Edwards The children are sick - The elders not sane Our neighbors are suffering in disease and pain It's time for us to make a stand Join hands across the Land This is a wellness uprising GMO must go - This is a wellness uprising No more foods drenched in pesticides It is we who now decide We - united now we stand Spread the word across the land Imagine a world where you can drink from a stream Where you can safely breath the air Imagine a world where children play outside Where the law is fair Are you really eating food designed by man from a laboratory and a plan. Held in the hand of a company specializing in chemistry - not health Everyone can be well - Healthy and sane It can be normal to be free of disease and pain It's time for us to make a stand Join hands across the land This is a wellness uprising GMO must go This is a wellness uprising
