Renunciation, an expression of creativity Part 2

As young children, we're all creative. We draw sing, build, and dream. Life is Easy. All we need are food or fuel, space and time to be and express ourselves. Yet somewhere along the way, we get lost and make life a little harder for ourselves because we think with our head and eyes rather than with our he-ART. 

Have we forgotten the simple act of breathing, the joy of being and playing with our friends and the sweet sound of laughing?
...
Have we forgotten the meaning of freedom, closing our eyes and sleeping in the middle of the afternoon with no feeling of guilt?
I do believe that creative confidence develops itself through renunciation of the high perception we have of ourselves in the eyes of others.

How can we resist the New Cramble in Africa? By Stopping the corporate takeover of african food

A landmark  G8  initiative ' The New Alliance for Food Security' to boost agriculture and relieve poverty has been damned as a new form of colonialism after African governments agreed to change seed, land and tax laws to favour private investors over small farmers. The alliance is being paid with hundred's of millions of pounds of our taxpayers'money to help the corporate like Unilever, Monsanto and Diageo to take over African land, seeds and agriculture. It is quite shocking to hear that this is the way the UK is spending Aid budget rather than supporting the African farmers who produce 70% of the countries food. Yesterday evening at the Christchurch on Clarendon Park Road in Leicester, I had the chance to assist to an event organised by the World Development Movement where I learnt more about this particular issue. Two speakers were present and below is a summary of the elements they cover. 1) Christine Haigh, Food Policy Officer from World Development...
