I have  been thinking a great deal about the 'fake milk', nestle, 
institutional  frustration of all of this and I have decided my answer:
Radical  Compassion.
I want to be compassionate with the bottle feeding mom.  I  need to be 
compassionate with the blind people working for formula  companies.  I will be 
compassionate with poorly trained doctors and  nurses.  I will even be 
compassionate with myself, being thankful for  what I have done.
I cannot, of course, be compassionate with an institution  or corporations. 
 Those are entities, not people."
~~~ Hello all,
Thanks Melissa for your radical word of the day. Of course in the USA  
corporations are legally people too...:( but yes I agree with you.
Still, the book sounds lovely and even though I have no space for  more 
books I am getting a copy. In Brooklyn, there are so many amazing  cultures 
represented. Thanks for sharing this with us.
 
Peace,
Judy
