the voice & the change

Just back from the store

and picked up:

• 1 Aubergine
• 6 Tomatoes
• A Packet of Mushrooms
• 3 Peppers
• Rissotto Rice
• Tub of Hummus
• Packet of Water Crackers
• Jar of Jam
• 2 Packets of Bagels
• Jar of Peanut Butter
• 5 Seed Bars
• 3 Bananas

All of which came to £7.12 and will last me the entire week, maybe buying another packet of mushrooms. But, being vegan is so expensive right?

Whale Wars

Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE WHAT THEY’RE DOING in regards to saving the whales, but… I’m watching the show now and Paul Watson just said ‘I wanna save lives’ yet, a few episodes ago one of the crew said they were a vegetarian and as far as I know out of the whole crew this is the ONLY vegetarian on board… Yes, the killing of whales is terrible, but so is killing cows, pigs, sheep, goat, fish etc. What happens on those killing beaches is the same as what happens inside slaughter houses. In my eyes, although they’re doing good they are huge hypocrites.

I’m an extremely laid back person

I really don’t get annoyed at much and when I do get annoyed, it passes quickly. It’s not worth me getting upset over. But one thing that I do get irritated with is people slaying vegans and calling them stupid but not giving them the time of day to explain and show them why they are vegan. I’m seriously getting tired of people shunning me out whenever I attempt to educate them. But - I wont give up. I owe it to the animals. I owe it to the earth. Why? Because, I am the voice & the change. Just like all the rest of you earthlings can be. You just choose not to.

Those with a heartbeat are not ours to eat.

If animals were able to depict their version of the Devil, it would be in human form. When humans are treated as disgustingly as animals there is a global outrage. For example:

• If I were to slit a humans throat whilst still fully concious - I’d go to jail.
• If I were to drag a human outside and tie them up then smack them over the head with a hammer in attempt to kill them - I’m go to jail.
• If I gassed humans for their skins to make a coat - I’d go to jail.
• If I anally electrocuted a human several times until they were dead - I’d go to jail.
• If I tested a cream I invented on a lab full of humans - I’d go to jail.

Why is it when a shark kills a human (on average 4 a year) there is a search party sent out to ensure that the animal is destroyed however, we kill (on estimate) 100 million of them out of sheer greed.

I remember being a little girl, whenever I seen a dog I’d run over to pet it. If I seen a cat I’d get down on all fours and entice it over to me just to pet it. I’d pick worms out of puddles and stare at the animals at the pet store for hours. You were this person too once. I know it. The difference is - I’m still this person. Who are you?
