" If we
(the big we) only could really grasp that what's good for others actually is best for us... you'd think it would be simple, wouldn't you, but it's not."
Very true, the first step is to get people thinking about the others, (our animal friends), if we stopped destroying their habitat, poisoning or destroying their food and water supplies, (the same ones we use), they wouldn't be the nuisance that some people think they are. They wouldn't need to come to our homes searching for food and water, or somewhere to live.
A clean environment is good for them, and good for us, it really is a simple concept, just takes a change in thinking :)
