Me, you and... the octopus?!

Do we need food? What about housing? Clothes? Schools? Roads? Hospitals? What is the price of a human life? Who is pricing our life? Who is pricing our necessities? Most importantly, who is fulfilling our needs?

In my opinion, God has created enough for everyone and everything, with more to spare. If this is so, then who is profiting from the current food prices, above what people in poor countries can afford?

The access to food in this world is unfair. For example, in the UK, one person can eat as much as 10 people from Mali can eat. In Germany, one person can eat as much as 20 people from the Philippines can eat. In the US, one can eat as much as 50 Indonesians can eat.

We need to provide each and everyone in this world with food, it is our duty. Some are not only indulging in the delights of food, but also throwing it in the ocean, to maintain food prices at the same level.

I realised why this happens: it is because we care deeply about the fish and other sea creatures. We want them to be fed and never starve. I feel very foolish to not have realised this earlier we were serving the noble cause of feeding the fish and mermaids. How I wish I were a fish and then I could have access to all the free food in the world!

My friends, if you want to join me, let us dive deeply and live next to an octopus, hiding behind colourful ink so nobody can see that we’re having a great time, with free food at our disposal!
