I am not a vegetarian

but I do love animals. Kind of hypocrite, don't you think? Yes.
I am a vegetarian and I love nature. I also like soy milk but that encourages the deforesting of AMazon forests to make space for the soy plantations, destroying as well the civilisation in that area, forcing people to leave the premises in search for a better place to stay. That makes me kind of hypocrite, don't you think? Yes.

Everything in this world has been twisted in such manner...that, whatever you'd want to do for the greater good, is still wrong. And not just ""I'm sorry, wrong""...but the whole impact on planet, making life not possible on that piece of land, wrong.

I was given the chance to watch this movie. You know when they say that...It's just a movie? I had the very bad luck for this movie to be a documentary. So, out there....these things HAPPEN, day in, day out.
Personally, I've managed to look till minute 31...continuous view. Afterwards, I browsed through it because ...because I am a hypocrite. Yes.


The documentary, narrated by Joaquin Phoenix, is called Earthlings:

And this is not all...I've read this morning the news from a region of my country, Romania. From Oltenia, south of Romania. Now....Romania is not a 3rd world country, people are not starving on the streets, they have jobs and aspirations, they have dreams and children, they have feelings and they are normal. And in the meantime, in the morning newspaper, they get to read news such as the one I've read today: "Last night, some people(unidentified yet), have placed very powerful poison in pieces of saussages and offered them to stray dogs(noodered/spaded). Over 40 of them died in terrible pain. Because they trusted.
Another very vicious act was that one of the dogs had the eyes pulled out. Yes, the person who poisoned the dog, waited till the dog was in convulsions, helpless, then the person pulled the eyes of the dog out, leaving it there. The vets operated the animal but the chances for survival are slim.


Background: romania has a ''stray dog/cat problem'': pounds are places where they get killed/abused, there are some companies that take them and spade them, but not many have the space for them, so they go back on the street.
Whenever the new Mayor comes to town, gets elected and everything else...the first to go are the STRAY ANIMALS. Because, yes, of course...they are the biggest problem. Not the shitty streets that tear ur car apart, not the garbage, not the buildings that are going to fall with the first earthquaqe..NO..the first ''biggest'' problem...Stray animals.


What amazed me even more...although i thought it wasnt possible...were the comments. The comments of the ppl who read the article. If I were an optimist, I'd say that they go 50-50, pro/against the death of the animals. That is sad...to actually approve and praise that hidious death of another being.
Today...although I love my country, because it is beautiful....I hate Romanians, because their soul has become darker than it ever was. Compassion, hospitality ...is fading in their heart. After 20 years from the revolution, my country is in a political fight (parties fighting over the corpse of the country), its inhabitants are losing their humanity...and my beautiful country is left to die, just because nobody cares anymore.
Today...I'm sad.


News like the ones I've read today...made me REALLY wonder...why are we, the humans, allowed on this Planet. We are not improving life on it, that's for sure...and we are mostly like a plague, if you may. Creative and with mental opportunity and power of speech..we multiply, just to take more space from this planet...and then we fight amongst ourselves, while we decimate the other species around us. So, the question WHY...still remains unanswered.

In love.
