ABH – Inspirational Sayings – September 2015 – If there is one thing that I know – it’s that all people who love animals have their hearts nicked or broken every day. But then we focus on the task at hand – which is creating awareness to help them – and get back to doing the job that stirs our passions and helps to correct human wrongs!

A Message To Every Suffering Animal

A Message To Every Suffering Animal

I Will Be

A Message To Every Suffering Animal – from the smallest honey bee with gossamer wings to feral kittens – stray dogs – the filthy, vulgar crates of foie gras ducks – bacon bound piglets – and caged chickens to wild horses – polar bears – vilified wolves – birds of every imaginable size and colour – to foxes – reptiles – rabbits – elephants – dolphins – sharks – magnificent whales and endangered animals; these incredibly intelligent and sentient beings all suffer every day at the hands of  humans. The cruelty is deliberate and intentional.

The Trophy Room

The Trophy Room

Cured Hides – Stuffed Heads 

The Trophy Room – He lounged in his recliner – the patina of the leather richly burnished by the constant use. Feet up on the elevated rest – ankles crossed – one slipper dangled from a calloused big toe. His stubby fingers surrounded the etched crystal tumbler. The thirty year old Scotch was perfect – a single malt – a drink for a man of his status. His eyes scanned the room – his hands were moist. He remembered every shot – every glorious kill. The absolute, sublime and exquisite power – the taking of life. His fame and glory fashioned by brutality and made whole – made real by money, connections, power, arrows and bullets. A reputation for the ages.

Killing Is Killing – The Taking Of A Life

“As Long As There Are Slaughterhouses – There Will Be Battlefields” – Leo Tolstoy (1828 – 1910) – these profoundly wise words from one of Russia’s finest writers are no surprise considering his strong belief in non-violent resistance and his deep understanding of human behaviour. During his forties Tolstoy had a moral crisis followed by a spiritual awakening. He condemned all war – the authoritarian control of government and the concentrated wealth of the aristocracy. He believed in the merits of vegetarianism and if he was alive today I think he might well be involved in animal activism – (the italics are mine).

Rage – Thou Art Now My Constant Companion

Rage – Thou Art Now My Constant Companion

Please Tell Me That I Am Not Alone

Rage – Thou Art Now My Constant Companion – “Perhaps there is a Book of Life – in it will be found the name of “every” beautiful animal – bird – fish – and even a dragonfly named Lucy – who has ever graced the Earth. They will be remembered by the Universe because they were good and selfless. Missing from this book will be the name of every human”. I wrote this on a morning when I was feeling particularly repelled by human kind. By noon I had mellowed after seeing some good news stories.
