Whereas the word veal in English simply means “flesh of a calf” and pork in English means “flesh of a pig used as food,” hidden in many of the Anglo-Saxon/Old English and Proto-Indo-European words for the living animals are clues about the physical, behavioral, or vocal characteristics of the living animals, reflecting a tendency to name animals based on typical attributes or activities.

  • A SIMPLE MATH EQUATION: MORE COMPASSION = MORE COMPASSION. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ If someone intentionally violates, hurts, threatens, or kills someone else, it's an indication of the absence of compassion, empathy, awareness, consciousness, and connection. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ The SOLUTION is not to withhold the very thing that’s missing — compassion, empathy, awareness, consciousness, connection — BUT TO FILL THE LACK / THE VOID WITH exactly what’s missing: compassion, empathy, awareness, consciousness, connection. ⁣⠀ It doesn’t matter WHO fills the void; what matters is that the void is filled. ⁣⠀ What's more: the people you think are the least deserving of compassion are probably the ones who need it most! ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ THE BOTTOM LINE: Where there is the absence of compassion means there is a need for more compassion — NOT LESS. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ ***⁣⠀ FOR MORE, listen to the newest Food for Thought podcast episode called "I Am Not Evil and Neither Are You: Tribalism, Ideology, and A Call for Compassion.

  • WE CAN SPEAK UP FOR ANIMALS WITHOUT SPEAKING DOWN TO HUMANS 💕⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ We can speak up for animals without talking down to people. We can stand up for something we believe in without standing over others. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Communicating effectively means finding our voice and expressing ourselves, our desires, our needs, our wants, and our values in a way that is productive, effective, truthful, and compassionate.⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ ⁣It means knowing the difference between using words that provoke thought and words that provide shock. The former shifts paradigms; the latter exists for its own sake. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ The way we communicate either draws people in or pushes them away. The better we are at communication, the stronger and more diverse our communities will be— one that consists of fellow vegans, aspiring vegans, and supportive non-vegans. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ ---⁣⠀ "Don't do nothing because you can't do everything. Do something. Anything." ~CPG⁣⠀ ---⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ 🛑Excerpted from The Joyful Vegan: Staying Vegan in a World That Wants You to Eat Meat, Dairy, and Eggs — AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER TODAY! {Link in Bio!} 🛑⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ ⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⁣⠀ #joyfulvegan #thejoyfulvegan #compassion #fortheanimals #veganchallenge #stayvegan #30dayveganchallenge #animaladvocacy #animalrights #compassioninaction #animalcruelty #vegetarian #joyfulvegans #govegan #animalwelfare #crueltyfree #veganforhealth #veganfortheanimals #veganfortheplanet #veganlifestyle #herbivore #plantbased #vegantips #mercyforanimals #poweredbyplants #endfactoryfarming #veganism #compassionforall #kindness
  • 🐱 It's still amazing to me that I ever disliked cats. But I did. I didn't want to be around them, I didn't like them. The truth is...I didn't understand them. I didn't get them. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Perhaps it one of the things that makes me appreciate them so much more today. I dunno. All I know is I DO. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who donated to @mainecoonadoptions for my birthday! I've been volunteering with them for a few months now, and it's such an honor and a gift to socialize rescued kitties to increase their chances of adoption so that they can be gushed over in a loving home. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ The way this little princess is gushed over. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Happy Caturday. Everyday. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ ---⁣⠀ 🐱 Please follow and share @mainecoonadoptions, and be sure to visit their website for kitties waiting to find their forever home! 🐱⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ #caturday #happycaturday #caturdayeveryday #catsrule #tuxies #tuxedocats #tuxedocatsrule #catsofinstagram
  • ❗WE'RE ANIMALS — NOT PLANTS❗⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ When humans began domesticating cattle, pigs, sheep, goats, and eventually chickens and turkeys, it meant that people lived in close proximity with animals — breathing, eating, and drinking their germs. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Despite the rituals performed to ward off disease, it spread among the animals themselves and also to humans, a phenomenon called zoonosis: the transmission of infectious disease from non-humans to humans.⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Being animals ourselves, it makes sense that we share many of the same diseases as our non-human cousins. We aren’t — after all — plants. We aren’t at risk for catching aphids or sooty mold or downy mildew. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ In fact, many of the major killer pandemics we’ve been plagued with were acquired from non-human animals, such as tuberculosis (from cattle), influenza (from pigs and birds), whooping cough (from pigs and dogs), and smallpox (from cattle). Even HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, is believed to have been first transmitted to humans through the butchering and consumption of infected chimpanzees. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ The development of vaccines provided us with immunity to certain diseases, and the word itself reveals the origin of these zoonotic infections. At its root is the Latin word VACCA, meaning “cow,” referring to the cattle disease (namely “cowpox”) that when contracted by humans through contact (resembling smallpox) was the basis of the first smallpox vaccines. ⁣⠀ ---⁣⠀ Don't do nothing because you can't do everything. Do something. Anything. ~CPG⁣⠀ ---⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ ✅THE JOYFUL VEGAN: STAYING VEGAN IN A WORLD THAT WANTS YOU TO EAT MEAT, DAIRY, AND EGGS is coming in November!
