Again — and again, as a Child … (05/29/17)

“When we finally realize that all animals are sentient … When we finally stop committing acts of rape on all species … When we finally see that their babies are taken away after birth and that their mothers mourn for months … When we are finally able to look straight into their eyes and feel their pain … When we finally acknowledge that the ‘humane slaughter’ of sentient beings is simply another name for murder … When we finally make the decision to act upon the compassionate call of our conscience … When we finally know that apathy in the face of genocide is no longer tolerable … When we finally hear their cries even far removed from the slaughterhouse walls … When we finally accept the mission of global stewardship and decide to bravely protect all those innocent and oppressed … When we finally choose to live up to the term Human(e) … When we finally come to prioritize the sanctity of the Earth ahead of our own superficial desires … When we finally come to understand that we are all one, and finally begin to act in kind … It is then and only then that we will all become vegans once again … And it is then and only then that we will finally become as Children once more.”
