Guest guest Posted January 20, 2000 Report Share Posted January 20, 2000 To Kim and Dwayne - thank you, I have never had such a wonderful compliment. Apart from Steve I have NEVER found such acceptance and support as since I became involved in the veg*an/animals rights community. If it's not too late I think my sanity might just have been saved.

Guest guest Posted June 24, 2000 Report Share Posted June 24, 2000 i have wanted fame is so that i can help to educate the world >about the rights of animals as well as people >can you imagine a rocker using their fame for good not evil >i guess it happens every now and again I think that is a wonderful dream. Have you seen Moby's CD 'Play'? He has several essays about peace, veganism, etc. on the CD cover. A meat eating coworker bought the CD for the music and read the essays, then he bought a CD for me since he knew I'd be interested. It was good for him to see that my husband and I are not the only vegans out there. Regarding meat on TV...we decided to 'kill' our TV when we moved from the DC area last October. We don't get any stations (I do miss PBS), but we still use it for playing movies. It is wonderful! My father (meat eater) even mentioned how many meat ads he sees in a day...it is actually starting to get to him. My husband and I read books and listen to NPR a lot more now since there is no TV distraction. I just worry about my son, he's already going to be 'different' because he's raised vegan and he has a congenital heart defect...now he won't know anything about pop culture with no TV. He's only 5 mo. so I have time before I need to worry about him at school. Who knows maybe the world will become more peaceful and vegan in the next 5 years. Linda Evans " The value of a society is based upon its kindness to animals. " -- Albert Schweitzer " The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated. " ---Gandhi " While we ourselves are the living graves of murdered beasts, how can we expect any ideal conditions on this earth? " George Bernard Shaw (playwright, Nobel 1925) Even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath, so that a man hath no pre-eminence above a beast. Ecclesiastes 3:19 (The Bible) " Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2002 Report Share Posted May 2, 2002 OMG... I accidentally drove from Aberdeen up to Forks, trying to get back to Silverdale! Every time I hear the name of that little town I have horrible flashbacks. Kristina At 10:31 PM 5/1/2002 -0400, you wrote: Hi!

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2002 Report Share Posted May 2, 2002 Hi! I grew up in Forks. My dh (dear husband) has quit his job as of the end of June so he can devote at least til the end of the year to an overseas medical project we have going, so while he is not working, we get to live in the neighborhood I grew up in in the country on almost 3 acres, near my family and on a creek. I want my kids to experience the country, play in the creek, go to the unspoiled and uncrowded beaches, and play in the woods. I know it rains a lot, but a lot of how you feel depends on the internal climate, not so much on the external. At least that is what I have found in my life, although a bright sunny day certainly can help to lift the spirits! After either December or March, after we come back from Peru, where we plan to be for 3-6 months we will look for another job for my husband and settle down somewhere in Western Washington, but almost for sure not in Forks, because of the job situation for my husband. Long answer to a short question. Have you been to Forks? Jessica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 2, 2002 Report Share Posted May 2, 2002 Hi Kristina! You really got lost going from Aberdeen to Forks trying to go to Silverdale! It is a long, lonely drive from Aberdeen to Forks. I hope you can visit it again under happier circumstances---maybe the 4th of July when there is usually a 3 day celebration, or maybe to visit the beach or the rainforest. Lots of things to see and do there, just not when you are lost or trying to find someplace else! Jessica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2002 Report Share Posted May 2, 2002 Most of the time that's true, but this year has been a bit odd. It rains in Sequim and not in PA. Of course, that won't last long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2002 Report Share Posted May 4, 2002 Dear Wendy: I was born in Olympic Memorial Hospital and grew up in Forks. My family came to PA in the 1890s and some still live there. If I could live wherever I wanted to in the world, I would live between PA and Sequim---maybe by the strait!! I am looking forward to being around there this summer and hope to be able to do some geneology research----just an interest that I have recently come by. Enjoy the green! I have found that you don't enjoy the beauty until you have been for a while where it is hot and dry and brown (and smoggy sometimes). Even now, at 41, when I go there I feel like running in the crisp clean air. Jessica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 4, 2002 Report Share Posted May 4, 2002 Dear Kristina, I believe it! The sunshine in Sequim, surrounded by all the beautiful green and the strait, is much of what makes it such a beautiful place to live.

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2002 Report Share Posted May 4, 2002 Hi Jessica, My husband was born & raised here--along with nine siblings!! He is the only one still here. We do think about moving away, but leaving the Olympics and the water would be hard for us. I hope you have a very safe trip on your way home to the peninsula :^) Wendy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
