A Taste of TRUTH … (06/27/15)

“There’s a very deep peace of the mind and calm of the Soul that comes from removing your life from the inherent violence of turning beautiful, living, feeling beings into butchered bodies … The raw, brutal events that occur at places such as slaughterhouses, feedlots, factory farms, family farms, processing plants, egg hatcheries and insemination facilities are beyond our worst nightmares. Indeed, that is why we don’t want to look, and that is why we pay others to do it for us — anonymous workers killing anonymous victims of our selfish appetites. That’s why those who pick up the blade do so with a hardened heart, a desensitized conscience, and ultimately a traumatized psyche …

Slaughter is always ugly, it is always cruel brutal, and it is always pointless. To say “NO” to that — to remove yourself from the horror; to awaken from the nightmare — releases you from that burden of guilt and shame that most of us experience (albeit most often subconsciously). The knowledge that we are directly supporting an industry that is evil incarnate provides a low, constant, underlying hum that causes us to make every excuse in the book to justify our actions, to release us from the guilt of our undeniable complicity …

No prayer I ever said over their dismembered bodies exonerated me from the part I played, and no excuse I ever made washed the blood from my hands. We can only feel free — indeed we can only truly BE free — when we stop participating in the madness.” ~ inspired by Colleen Patrick-Goudreau
