Ask Ask Ask....

So as I was watching T.V. the other night with the hubby we happened upon the Sundance Channel that is being previewed for the month of January. Not only do they air some good thought-provoking shows and movies but things make it on that typically wouldn't be on mainstream tele (which is mostly so repulsive these days that I barely watch anything any more). This channel even plays short films during the commercial break and this particular night they were airing the Green Porno series. Firstly, hilarious. Secondly,informative. Thirdly, these shorts triggered something within  that was bubbling up inside me in the last weeks anyway: if you're curious ask. Don't just wonder or take someone else's word for it. Don't become glazed over at the splendors of live (talking to myself here as much as any reader). If someone tells you something, ask more about it. Ask about food- where does it come from, how did it get to your house and on your plate? Ask about products- don't believe what the celebrity says about the soap s/he's advertising, they didn't make it, what do those ingredients actually do. Does the biodegradable diaper bio-degrade? Ask ask ask. There are endless things you could ask. It has become so overwhelming that people(myself included of course) have decided to stop asking, and some have even forgotten how. So please mamas, ask. Oh, and check out the Green Porno by Isabella Rossellini while your at it!

P.S. As I seek and ask I will post findings that work well for our family in the appropriate pages listed across the top of blog. Please share what you find too. Sharing is caring!
