Pet Monologues – Animals V & Victory!
I am so moved and delighted and excited – as is most of the world!! Electing Obama gives me hope that we can move beyond the kind of politics that has dominated this country. I am also saddened that gay rights took a real hit in this same election that has so much hope. But I also know that it is just a matter to time … clearly, the tide has turned from, say a decade ago. Many people now understand that gay people are people just like black people are people. It will take a little longer, and a lot of work, to give fulls rights to gay people. But in the meantime, we have Obama and he will lead this country with a new attitude of respect and cooperation.

This image is for the Pet Monologues which is the blog which I directed you to showing that incredible video about the lion hugging the woman who rescued him. Also they highlight art, poems and more that showcase animals every week. You can see their blog here. And this is the post for this particular challenge. I hope you enjoy the images there!!Here is that other lion video I told you about the other day. This video is absolutely amazing!! If you loved that lion video I showed you before – and who didn’t? Then you will LOVE LOVE LOVE this video … it is utterly amazing … some of us have cried from the beauty. I know I could put the video here … but it slows things down more – so I wanted to link you to it. It will open in a new window.
They put up a few of the images and then have links to the rest of the sites … perhaps you will feel moved to participate! Thank you for coming by!

I’m hopeful that those issues that did pass regarding taking away of gay rights, will get turned around. I’m SO hopeful for the future of the Supreme Court, that is a big part of this election win, and, it will be a win for civil rights in general that have been eroded over the last several years.
Have a great day today!

We’ll post links to sites that have Wednesday (plus or minus a few days) submissions of their chosen animal artwork. “Art is not a mirror held up to reality, but a hammer with which to shape it.”—Bertolt Brecht

Nice poster there. Looks really nice
anyway yes, I agree with you about the fact that gay people are not more than people and the situation is similar to few decades ago concerning black people. Eventually people will start to blend in.
