But I hope that someday everyone starts listening to animals and stops treating them so horrible. Someday, I hope that animals are able to live in peace instead of being abused and slaughtered at the hands of humans.
It’s the only thing I want and it’s something that I’ll never have because no one will listen.
I’m sick of everyone’s excuses. I’m sick of feeling so alone like this. I’m sick of people disrespecting not only me but most importantly, the animals. I’m sick of it all. I need someone who understands me; someone who understands why I get so upset when people are eating animals or their secretions in front of me, someone who understands why I get so upset when I don’t want to kiss someone who has eaten such, someone who understands how I feel so empty yet full of passion for the most beautiful creatures in the world, someone who understands why I have to do what I am doing.
I have to educate people. I have to show them that they need to change. I don’t care if it spoils their dinner. I don’t care if it makes them puke. I don’t care if it makes them angry. All I care about is the animals that they are hurting and until they stop, I won’t stop.
This is what matters to me. This is what I have to do.
This should be the first clue that someone is a piece of shit. If someone abuses animals, don’t think for one second they wont abuse you.

Anonymous asked: Hi I just wanted to compliment you in your blog which popped up via Google when I was doing some searches re the horrific practice in Spain of making horses walk through bonfires. You explain how it feels to be a vegan so eloquently in your piece of non-fiction. I have been Vegetarian since seeing a slaughter house video at school when I was 12, then as I learnt more I became Vegan at 18. I have been an Animal Rights activist since then and am now 38. Thank you for a great blog xx
Thank you! That means a lot to me since animals are my passion. I can’t believe my blog comes up whenever you searched for things like that. That’s pretty awesome! I just want to make a difference and help those who aren’t vegan understand and see what goes on daily for animals who fall victim to our “needs.” You saw a video of that at school? I had no idea schools showed things like that, but that’s good that they do because people need to at least be aware of what they’re doing. I, too, was somewhere around that age when I went vegetarian and I went vegan at 18! I’ve only been vegan for a mere year now but you have to start somewhere; I honestly always knew I’d go vegan because I still felt awful about eating dairy products. But anyway, us animal rights activists need to stick together to stand up for animals. I know that I can promise that I will until I’m no longer breathing.
I haven’t been on Tumblr lately, if at all really. I’ve been so busy. My laptop broke and the semester started again, but I just saw a post that really got on my nerves. It’s not just this post. In fact, it’s many posts. Many people on here have the same exact type of posts, actually. Let me clue you in on what I’m referring to.
Someone posts something that someone else disagrees with. The person who disagrees with the person’s initial posting takes it upon themself to say something to them. It doesn’t go over well because, 1. They aren’t civil in their disagreement and 2. Neither is the other person. They toss around insults as if it’s going to prove their point or open up the other person’s eyes, ears, or heart. It’s not. All it does it angers them further and destroys any little chance you may have had at explaining yourself and them understanding your point of view.
So stop insulting people when you’re trying to get through to them. It doesn’t help you and it doesn’t help them. It doesn’t make you look cool. It certainly gives you no credentials. If anything, it takes any that you may have had away. Channel that anger towards something beneficial to someone. Go write a book or read one.
There’s a difference between a logical argument and a fight. What most have on Tumblr and anywhere, as far as that is concerned, is a fight. Pick your fights for things that matter and fight with logical arguments when you do.

I saw this man on the Metro this past Monday, and asked him who the flowers were for. They were for his wife. They’ve been married for 47 years. Every Monday, he brings her home flowers after work. My heart died at that moment.
