I’m passionate about a vegan world – which means kindness and compassion for all creatures – (especially to stop the needless suffering caused by the meat/dairy/egg industries). Oh to live in the Land of No Sorrow!

I send e-mails with pictures to make them laugh – GIFs – like: dogs in swings — or to make them smile at something of beauty – like flying birds or clouds at sunrise…

“Ahimsa” – vegan compassion – JOY.

To look everyone in the eye and smile – the store clerk, the homeless person – to SEE and acknowledge – we are all in this together.

… may you feel safe enough here to leave more thoughts over the next few days….

It’s so much safer to be invisible… but when someone really sees you, it is so incredibly heartwarming… and the only way to be seen is to take the risk to connect. Little steps, indeed. You’re on your way.

Sheila – we must be kindreds! – drawn to the same things – even picking the same symbol (I love clouds.) I must have been a seagull in a past life. (It’s hard to get used to this human body [haha] but being human allows me to use words and drink in Netflix. So, I’m making the most of it [even if I can’t fly to the clouds – I can surround myself with pictures and inspiration – and welcome birds to my back yard]). Happy Hearts!

Oh! I have a RAIN mantra, too: R-emember who you are. A-ppreciate right now. I-magine the best possible outcome. N-o fear! Thanks for sharing yours and reminding me of mine. Onward we go, our bodies slipping away to free our souls (for the next body to enjoy to the fullest, if you believe in incarnations…)… Enjoy what’s possible in our bodies, now.

Can you imagine a world where everyone is smiling? Let’s add to this – and imagine it “catching” — (we might all start laughing. What a world, indeed!)
