“In the last analysis, the essential thing is the life of the individual. This alone makes history, here alone do the great transformations take place, and the whole future, the whole history of the world, ultimately springs as a gigantic summation from these hidden sources in individuals.” C. G. Jung
Some things are so iconically sacred in nature that their demise should/must generate a response to abuses. So, when I came upon a piece about the decline in the giraffe population I was interested to followup. Imagine my disgust when I discovered companies actually provide a safari experience to hunt/kill giraffes. I am not anti-hunting, but this is beyond the pale. Shame meter pegged! The giraffe populations are allegedly in serious decline….could these morons be part of the problem…of course they are! All rationalizations aside, this is obscene.

She raises her head to gaze outside. It’s cold and windy out there. Normally, she would sit atop her perch, by the window, to take in every fleeting thing. The humming bird feeders would definitely draw constant attention. But, not today…Penny the Cat’s head is heavy. She prefers, today, to lounge at the end of the couch, eyes closed and mind at ease. Her lazy, shedding days certainly infects my energy levels. So much to do outside, but maybe tomorrow………..
