The Perfume we Live in...

Dear Farmers,

First I had doubts about the contents of my words. Another mood and this letter would have turned out differently, but I should remain close to my feelings. I have very good memories of all the times I spend some time on a farm house. As a child I even used my hands to bring a new animal life to the world. Not one complaining word about filthy and blood came out of that child's mouth. I'm still like that, but I need to bring my feelings to the paper.

I have a problem with the smell you spread out over de large fields with the manure of your stock of cattle. I know you do not smell the scent of your livestock and manure, because we all get used to the perfume we live in. But believe me, the smell is not to bear. My nostrils protest and the hair in my nose has to work hard to block the smell. But I am not the slightest. I know you have to deal with too many regulations and laws already. Therefore I ask you not to stop what your nature is, I will only ask for one concession from your side. Just a small step towards my needs. Please can you put a warning sign 1000 meters before the scent zone, so that I can close the windows of my car? That way I can still surrender myself to the beautiful spring weather.

Thank you very much.

Sincerely, Jade
