one shot at life...when we believe otherwise we do not try to make it better on earth in real time...other worlds, reincarnation, heaven, rainbow bridges were devised by humans out of fear...the fear is that we do not do our best with the precious time we have to revere life of all who exist among us NOW.that includes not just the human animal but all animals and all sentient beings. how are we missing that truth? why are we looking away from that truth? pardon me, but I am reviewing some beautiful young "domesticated" potential "pets" who got killed today -- and we need to face facts.the number of living beings who can feel pain and fear who are slain every second must be acknowledged. must be.this terror and this disregard for the lives of others among us must be addressed.________________________Read about movies and nostalgia, animal issues and sociopolitical concerns all discussed in my book Secrets of an Old Typewriter and its new follow-up Misunderstood Gargoyles and Overrated Angels - print and ebook versions of both are available (click the title to order from publisher Open Books' website).
