“I think one thing that kids who grow up on farms really have going for them is they have exposure to death and birth in a totally different way.

We understand the generations that will go after us because we gave birth to them.” IfsThinkingMenWorldBelieveWellsStillsDifferentWarEnoughWould BeAbleTogetherPoliticalForceWishWomenPowerfulEnvironmentGenerationsGroupsBirthBiggerImpactEmbraceDon't BelieveRanBigger Picture Author:Kyra Sedgwick
