HE CAUSE OF ANIMALS

The Planet Earth rotates at a speed of 1,000 km/h to 1,700 km/h, in the constancy of time and weightlessness.
It maintains its orbit as if by magic, without any support or disturbance in its gravity around the Sun and the Moon.
This planet Earth, source of Life and abundant blessings, from which every creature finds its initial and luxuriant substance, for the Creator of all things willed that there should be no misery or suffering in this sacred and peaceful place.

In the perception of our sight, we perceive two (2) categories of living communities on this planet: 1 is the human community, and 2 is the animal community.
However, just because we don't see other creatures (Life) doesn't mean that there is nothing other than us here below. Life continues its course, or rather its destiny, with ups and downs, in joy and good humor interspersed with sadness and desolation, because misfortune and suffering drag many people and animals into a shattering chaos that leaves us speechless and without the words to express and explain it.

In this surge of suffering, many human beings are responsible for this misfortune that befalls the two Communities. It's as if since the beginning of our existence on this earth, human beings have created suffering with almost everything they live and have to do... it's the irony of fate, or rather of their destiny.

So much Life in suffering and so many people who create this suffering through the cruelty of some and the recklessness of others.
The end result: as many human beings as animals suffer and live in unspeakable suffering. The world has undergone numerous changes, both good and bad, over the centuries and millennia, by the human species. Ultimately, both communities have suffered a vital, demographic, and ecological disaster, which may be only the beginning of hell on earth.

The Animal Cause is a human responsibility that concerns everyone. Just as the Human Cause cannot be accomplished without the Animal Cause.
Humanity receives, in its difficulties and development, numerous supports and aids of all kinds, in order to improve its living conditions and life expectancy… First aid, medical care, assistance against poverty and purchasing power, mediation, protection, etc.… without discrimination.

Good people, bad people, we are all in the same boat, and the Sun rises for everyone, without discrimination.
The Animal Cause is our cause, just as the Human Cause is also our cause.
How can we be happy in a world where suffering and chaos reign? How can we defend vulnerable beings except through force of circumstances and authority?
How can we eradicate the suffering that plagues animals and the human species except through force of circumstances?
Humanity wages many wars (battles) to defend its interests and also to protect itself and its loved ones.

The Animal Rights movement is our responsibility and our benevolence, and the primary cause for happiness and good living for all.
What human being would want to endure the cruelty of others? What human being would want to be abandoned by the side of the road like a filthy animal?
What human being would want to spend their entire life in a shelter due to a lack of love from others?
What human being would want to be euthanized because there isn't enough space to keep them and not enough financial means to provide for their needs?
There isn't enough love to fight for them and allow them to exist with dignity on this earth... where all life is ephemeral, without exception. During the acute Covid-19 crisis, humanity felt reassured, because Scholars and People of Good Will fought fervently and relentlessly to push back Death, and they ardently kept the Flame of Life aflame so that it could continue to shine in all its splendor and existence.
So that the joy of Living, even if fleeting in this Lower World, could manifest its full enthusiasm in a resounding echo in the Mountains and Valleys of the entire world.

Our pride lies in the Fight for just causes, and it is even greater when it is for the great causes of the World.
We are Soldiers of Life.
Not you!
Long ago, the Ancients said :

A Whole Life for that.

In the end, they are four feet under, and what's more, no one takes anything with them, except the Book of their Deeds... but the Adventure was worth it.

May the Peace and Mercy of Almighty GOD be upon you... my Brother, my Sister.
You are indeed the Children of Adam and Eve (blessings be upon them), and so am I.

May GOD be with us, all... happy, unhappy, rich, poor, kind, not kind, good, not good, humble, not humble, etc.
«  As they say in the jargon of Adventurers :
May the fair wind carry us, for here below, all things pass.
While Eternity is on the other side of the Veil, I cling firmly to the Hope of a Better World.
Tomorrow is another Day.
To GOD, we shall meet again...
To those who understand. »
