A Mending of Motherhood … Step #04 — Accepting Responsibility (05/10/15)

“My perspective of veganism was most affected by learning that the veal calf is a by-product of dairying, and that in essence there is a slice of veal in every glass of what I had thought was an innocuous white liquid – milk.” ~ Rynn Berry

”Animals are so beautiful, each in their own ways. How can anyone look at them and see anything less? To reduce them to a mere ingredient — or a garment, or a form of recreation or entertainment — is patently absurd and morally repugnant … Indeed, whenever we purchase animal products we commit not only crimes against the affected animals, but crimes against ourselves as well … Please, don’t sell yourself short of the justice you are capable of giving — and thereby the Joy you are capable of receiving — by making poor choices in what you purchase. Refuse to exploit the most vulnerable — the animals, who have all done you no wrong. Our laws still fail them by the millions every day, so let’s not break the one law in our Hearts; the one desire we all have and the one dream to which we all aspire — Peace … Remember: It always begins with you.” ~ inspired by D Liz Palma

“If you don’t want to be beaten, imprisoned, mutilated, killed or tortured yourself, then you shouldn’t condone such behavior towards anyone else, be they human or not.” ~ Moby
