I am a vegetarian, moving towards vegan and her writing shows me a whole new way of moving from the inside out, sort of... I especially like the sentence "Because we are insensitive to animals, we assume that they are insensitive, too." So true, and part of the reason that people who save earthworms from drowning (been there, done that) are frowned upon, I think, is because of the pain that NOT ridiculing would inflict on the own heart. Oh well, I feel stronger for finding your blog and reading Cheri's words, and that feels GOOD!
