For Crying Out Loud: Please Go Vegan!
>> Saturday, June 16, 2012
Sometimes I do an awful lot of crying... Sad, sad tears.. I'm ever grateful to those friends who help wipe them away...
It sure does get tough though. Not a day or hour can go by for the tuned-in to know that there's a universe of suffering going on out there... No wonder why I and many others can feel overwhelmed - and helpless to change much of it. So could it be - And surely it is - That just being there to listen to each others troubles becomes greater than that act might ever seem to be? I think it's true!
And so it's enough to want to share yet more tears... But those that come from sweet gladness and hope instead of the bitter ones of despair. Below is Joey Borden - A fine story teller with a worthy message:

I vote for Joey Borden to lead the ethical vegan movement into its prime!
With his modest and meek, gentle and generous, positive and peaceful, disarming and delightful manner and message, Joey is our answer to Mark Bittman, Michael Pollan, Joel Salatin, and all the so-called compassionate and conscientious carnists touting the incongruous message of kind killing.
Thanks for sharing Joyful Joey with us, Bea. I've sent his three videos to a friend so she can consider showing one or more of them at our monthly vegan potluck dinner-and-movie nights!
Interesting isn't it...that so many find it so hard (apparently) to refrain from harming others. One would think it would be just the other way round.
Hi CQ - Glad you found his message useful... In an "emerge gently" kind of way. ;)
Hello veganelder - Yes, it boggles the mind how so many resist just doing what's right. Worse yet is that 99% of the world doesn't even see the harm - let alone desire to undo it.
Makes ya wanna cry sometimes... Out loud. :(
