So, I am REALLY excited for Christmas, I asked for 1 main thing. No expensive iPhone or iPad, nothing like that. I asked for a puppy. Even just to foster one would be awesome! That is all I want! (Preferably one of the bigger types of dogs such as a retriever or German Shepherd or a Belgian Sheepdog
.)

 Man is the only creature that consumes without producing.  He does not give milk, he does not lay eggs, he is too weak to pull the plough, he cannot run fast enough to catch rabbits.  Yet he is lord of all the animals.  ~George Orwell, Animal Farm

I've reached a realization, To forgive. It is hard, very hard... but meaningful. I will forgive people of their sins here and there and ask God and the animals too. I wish That we wouldn't have to do this and that the world could live in harmony, but that will never happen and we have to except that. On March 10th, it is vegetarian days. For 10 days, just 10 days, you have to eat no meat. It is doable, and pretty easy. Not having to worry about cooking that pizza or chicken...just salad,fruit and even cheese pizza. No meat though. If you can do it without even taking a nibble of meat for 10 days than you succeed and that is great. If not that is OK, maybe you were not meant to be a vegetarian...but I do suggest organic meat.

If you love animals called pets, why do you eat animals called dinner?  ~As seen on a shirt at veganstore.com

Fruit and Good News

                     Dear Readers, 
                              My group is selling scrumptious fruit and cheesecake! I don't know you, so...You cant order from me, sorry. But, if you are an animal lover there is good news(If not, get of this now!) I am going to donate some of the money I make to my local animal shelter! We make a dollar per box we sell and the winner receives seventy-five bucks! That is alot if you sell alot! Well anyway, I would also like to add for you to check out gleegiveanote.com, they have a contest and the winner gets free music equipment. I would love you to vote, and I prefer you to vote for my favorite, Geneva High school. I don't know why...but I really want them to win. My best friend used to live there once before she moved and when I went there the people were really nice! It is the one about the balloon, not Geneva, Illinois (even though I liked them too)


                             When I was twelve, I went hunting with my father and we shot a bird.  He was laying there and something struck me.  Why do we call this fun to kill this creature [who] was as happy as I was when I woke up this morning.  ~Marv Levy

Hey People!

    Dear Readers,

My Running

                                   Dear Readers,
                                                   Yesterday I was at my travel soccer practice and we were doing suicides(also called ladders): where you sprint to one ball, sprint back and touch the ground, sprint to the second ball and sprint back, e.t.c. Well of course, the first time I messed up cause my shoe lace was untied, lesson learned. The second time we did it I was in fifth place. I KNOW I am way faster than my body demonstrated with the suicides. So, in a full field scrimmage( our field is pretty big, specially since we are a U-13 team. ) the forward came sprinting down the middle field. She had got past my middle and left defender, and at the time I was on someone else. It was my time to shine, I was angry, I sprinted and when I was sprinting I felt like a cheetah, gaining speed with every stride, locking my eyes on the target. I didn't hear or see anything around me but the girl and the ball. I got back there and  got the ball, and felt satisfied. Here's the thing, when I am in a race, I am half the speed as on the field, on the field I am twice as fast. I don't know why, I just am. You can't make a cheetah run a race, but you can watch her run in the wild. I love cheetahs, they inspire me.Sadly they are being wiped out by, you know the answer, humans. Not just poaching, also building thousands of homes and villages taking THEIR HABITAT!

Video Games Debate

                   Dear Readers,

                                                  I was just outside almost all my day, it is night now. When I got home I started to think, "Man am I a video game addict?"  But I realized, come paired to other people- I am super healthy and fit. Here is a commonly asked question; Are video games good or bad for you? I answered back; 

                                  Simple, good if you use them wisely. If you play them every day or even every other day for hours they are terrible for you. It is healthy for your body to stay active and outdoors. Trust me, people have gone centuries without them, we can go a couple day without them too. But they are not all that bad (again, use them wisely) Some teach children about life and education, others teach children how to murder someone. NEVER let your child play those~ They may be fun, but sometimes they lead to real life murder or suicide. and, please, only play video games when maybe you can't go outside or it's a bad day out. If it's a sunshiny or even a snowy day out, go play. There are to many obese or over weight video game obsessed losers out there, don't be one of them. STAY ACTIVE!!! I say to most of you  whom are addicted and do nothing but blind yourself by the screen that they ARE bad. But if you are a smart, fit, active person who uses them wisely- they are NOT  all that bad.

              
                              I ask people why they have deer heads on their walls.  They always say because it's such a beautiful animal.  There you go.  I think my mother is attractive, but I have photographs of her.  ~Ellen DeGeneres

!What The World Has Come To!

                             Dear Readers,

                                                        The song above is one of nature's anthems. Also one of my favorite songs that shows what cruel people do to the world. So what if you needs a job to pay your family- Go get one to SAVE the earth! It sounds harsh- but sometimes I hope people get hurt on the job, then they would have to stop. Right now, people are selfish jerks with no souls. Some people care though, some make an effort. Those people God will care most about, those people Earth will spare.Others, death is uncertain. I wish that people would use their brains, There is a reason God gave it to us. But instead we choose to do what we feel, all we care about is war and money. We just care about how much land we WASTE, and love- Jeez people! And you can go ahead and try to change my mind~ but you can NEVER change where my heart is.All you haters can try to intimidate me, but Earth is on my side!

Why should man expect his prayer for mercy to be heard by What is above him when he shows no mercy to what is under him?  ~Pierre Troubetzkoy

Pymatuning Lake, Ohio/Pennsylvania

                                       Dear Readers,
     
                                                                  Earlier me and my father went on our boat at Pymatuning Lake. It was a "boat load" of fun! Even though we only caught two fish, both catfish and the second one I caught got it self off the line before I could touch it. But it was really fun anyways, and The water was clean and their wasn't much trash on land. The only problem is the restrooms, PYEW! I'd rather use a tree and I'm a girl. I found that the lake was man made in the 1930's. Settlers came to hunt the beaver in the area which then was a small swamp and lush forest. Then news came and many lumberers came and cut down the woods. Soon afterward they build a dam and rain,water and so on happened then BAM! You have an awesome lake. Where we were, we saw these tiny islands~ VERY TINY (at least compared to other islands)

                                                          When a man wantonly destroys one of the works of man we call him a vandal.  When he destroys one of the works of god we call him a sportsman.  ~Joseph Wood Krutch

Packin On The Heat

                  Dear Readers,

                                              The past couple days have been sizzling. I should know, I have a TERRIBLE sunburn. So make sure all of your pets have plenty food and water and don't leave them in the care longer than ten minutes. Also be sure to wear LOTS of sunscreen (lesson learned for me) or else you WILL burn. But most of all enjoy the heat cause it won't last for some of you.

                                            Here in northeast Ohio, it is a scorching 80 degrees! That may not sound like a lot to you people who get over 100 degrees but when your used to the cold, this is HOT! So, the question is, how hot is it where you are?

We have enslaved the rest of the animal creation, and have treated our distant cousins in fur and feathers so badly that beyond doubt, if they were able to formulate a religion, they would depict the Devil in human form.  ~William Ralph Inge, Outspoken Essays, 1922

What Kind Of Person Are You?

                              Dear Readers,

                                                       I am a person who believes a lot in animal rights, but I also believe in helping helpless humans too. I will stand up for ANY animal but if I see that there is an earthquake or war for example, I talk about it. What I want to know is what kind of person are you? If you comment and tell me who you are and what you believe in, I may read your blog. So PLEASE COMMENT! I want to know :)

             
We must fight against the spirit of unconscious cruelty with which we treat the animals.  Animals suffer as much as we do.  True humanity does not allow us to impose such sufferings on them.  It is our duty to make the whole world recognize it.  Until we extend our circle of compassion to all living things, humanity will not find peace.  ~Albert Schweitzer, The Philosophy of Civilization

Veterinarian Class

                       Dear Readers,

                                          Today I signed up for a veterinary class. It isn't like a college class, it's just a  fun way to learn the skills and techniques of a veterinarian. I am very excited, I just printed out the canine skeletal structure and Anatomy and The feline skeletal structure and muscle system. I love animals and everything to do with them! By the way, please, people, if you enjoy my blog... feel free to become a member <3

"Great" Lakes Problem

                              Dear Readers,
             
                                                       Today I went to the beach to go swimming. I live by Lake Erie so I get to go often if I get a ride. When I was there I noticed trash on the beach and some... in the water. There was an empty water bottle just floating in the water and paper by the tree line. Of course when I got home I looked up pictures of the Great Lakes and, well, the "Great" in Great Lake was a misapprehension. The lakes are trashed and people have no respect for them. Not all of the lake is bad, there are spots that are clean and there are people that are trying to clean it. Sadly people are rude and just leave there junk on the beach thinking it will magically go away. GO TO REALITY PEOPLE! That will never happen, trash is a death trap for animals and fish and it makes us look bad. So PLEASE respect our beach and if you see trash~ recycle it or pick it up.

 Hunting is not a sport.  In a sport, both sides should know they're in the game.  ~Paul Rodriguez

Earth of 2011

   Dear Readers~
                                      The Earth today is different than the late 1600s. It has prospered into a polluted uncontrollable death trap with murderers, abusers, polluters, and so on.China: the forth largest country in the world, has no pollution laws. It's air also happens to be the worst (I wonder why...) And people all over the world abuse animals and most of the time kill the animals everyday. Most people say that they hate people like me, the ones who love animals and protest abusing. They say people come first, well animals owned the earth before us and we should respect that. God put us on the Earth to share with the animals, we disobeyed God. People claim that they cut down trees to help their own kind... WHY CAN'T WE DO THAT AND RECYCLE!?! It saves time, money, and lives on both the human AND the animals side.

                                   There are four kinds of people in the world: The ones who only love animals and protest for them, The ones who only love people and fight for them, the ones who love both and fight for both(me), and the people who care about neither or can't care about either. I live by a horrible devastation and stupidity(well, at least to me) People are cutting down a HUGE patch of forest for houses. You may be thinking that people need this and that someone probably doesn't have a home. That may be true BUT there is an abandoned house that just needs some touch up that those people could use. Why waste land and money building a whole new house when you can reuse one!? that would be better for people and animals. By the way I am also on humans side to save humans. I decided to raise food and money for the food pantry and instead of presents for my birthday I asked for food and money to donate. For all you haters out there that say humans come first animals can just die, YOUR NOT THAT INTELLIGENT! There are so many people in the world we can all form together and save both!!!

From beasts we scorn as soulless,
In forest, field and den,
The cry goes up to witness
The soullessness of men.
