“And if we dare to look into those eyes, then we shall feel their suffering in our hearts. More and more people have seen that appeal and felt it in their hearts. All around the world there is an awakening of understanding and compassion, and understanding that reaches out to help the suffering animals in their vanishing homelands.

“An essential element in the meaning of the common good among the members of a group is what the members would choose if they possessed the fullest attainable understanding of the experience that would result from their choice and its most relevant alternatives. Because enlightened understanding is required, I would propose to incorporate opportunities to acquire enlightened understanding as essential also to the meaning of the common good.

I have never been more satisfied with a DNF. No one goes into a race not wanting to finish. Of course everyone wants to finish the race. They have put a whole bunch of training into this effort. They want to get out there and finish the job. For me this DNF was a long time coming. I waited two years to earn this DNF. I was supposed to run this event… Read More
“Humans – who enslave, castrate, experiment on, and fillet other animals – have had an understandable penchant for pretending animals do not feel pain. A sharp distinction between humans and ‘animals’ is essential if we are to bend them to our will, make them work for us, wear them, eat them – without any disquieting tinges of guilt or regret.

The important stuff has no finish line.” – James Clear It is interesting to see flowers of similar colors from Bluets to: New York… Read More
“Accept Where You Are to Get You Where You Want to Go. Seeing clearly, accepting, and starting where you are. Not where you want to be. Not where you think you should be. Not where other people think you should be. But where you are.” ― Brad Stulberg, The Practice of Groundedness: A Transformative Path to Success That Feeds–Not Crushes–Your Soul Click the link to see another beautiful white flower image, but… Read More
