On May 13th 2008, I blogged that I watched Ear+hlings and asked myself, "where do I go from here?" Not knowing what to do even after seeing the plight of the poor animals.
But one week ago, I had an epiphany while bathing. Vegetarianism. Yes, I can do it. I have already stopped eating beef and lamb. I am going to stop all meat intake completely. Of course, I won't do it overnight, I can't anyway - I tried two days in a row and my stomach got a little uncomfortable. Vegetarian friends advised me not to switch so suddenly too. So now I am vegetarian 2 days a week. Then 3 days a week. Soon, I will commit to every other day and then I will go vegetarian 6 days a week.
I don't foresee myself turning vegan soon, infact, I think I will only reach this goal of 6 days a week in perhaps, December. But it's possible. I actually believe it's possible and that's a real achievement from last year.
When it comes to animals, I will do anything. Because it's not their fault that we humans are here, fucking up their lives.

What Are You So Afraid Of?
I read Y CL Lee's paper entitled "Don't ever take a fence down until u know why it was put up" - basically a paper to argue against repeal377a.
"and the rights of the so-called sexual minorities...", "thus, a lesbian may demand the same rights as a hetereosexual female...", "retention of 377a protects communal morality"
And there is a homosexual agenda - which is, guess what? To fight for rights - to be given equal work opportunities, be married to each other, buy a house together, open a bank account together... things like these. What the hell is so diabolical about wanting to live "like normal"??
You have everything... yet why do you still want to take away whatever little that's left of us?
What? Don't ever take down a fence until u know why it was put up?
Your goddamned fucking fence will trap u in one day. And when the fire is ablaze and eating you up and you're screaming for help, the outside world will only fade away - laughing - while you get poisoned by your own burning flesh.

He Will Breathe Life Into Your Wounds
It's a pretty picture painted of this town, it's quiet, it's peaceful, it's calm. But beneath this farce, there is a different portrait. It's not human, his limbs are contorted, twisted with rotting flesh. He is my King. He is our King. Every night we gather around Him and we pray to Him, asking Him for forgiveness. Please forgive me, my Lord. Please forgive me, my Lord. He is forgiving. His forgiveness shows - in these scars that sting lovingly on my back, in these beautiful bruises that are His kisses, in my blood that He hungrily devours from my neck, my arms and my chest. He is my flesh, my bone and everything that is me in my meaningless existence. He picked me up from death and gave me another life. He is there for me, He carries me on his back, and I thrive in the thorns that pierce through me, for they are His loving arms. My Lord, my giver, my reason. He can love you too. It only costs you your soul.
