We need to write new ones, that we create our own reality and in doing so ignorantly, not knowing we do, does not stop the creation process. So when we realize and understand we do, we will by our own self serving opti-mysical ways create from our highest Imaginings! Why would we do any less? Because we don't have the understanding yet. Now here's my 3 point plan about animals as food.. Level one. End the lives (not kill) of the animals in a compassionate way. Level two, which is more advanced. Tell the animals what's going to happen and why. So now they now what's uP. Level three which is really advanced. Give the animals a choice. To live or die for us as food. This has been done at the Findhorn Foundations according to Penelope Smith when I did an animal communications workshop with her in the 90's. She told me that when given a choice, (it was probably in the 1970's) some animals said ok, others, I want more time, still others said no. Anywho that's my opinion. Blessings and Appreciation to all. :-) Ok, if anyone can convince me otherwise (no one has yet, but I’m open) we don’t need the old fairy tales at all.

My parents were love and would sooner not eat and give to their children then leading them into the bush and then disappear. I transported cattle when at sea. So what, people must eat and not everyone is a vegetarian. I thank them for feeding my brothers and sisters. I fished and hunted as well not anymore here we are not allowed guns anymore only the gangsters have them now. All is beautiful if looked upon it with love.

I keep hearing about the shadow side. It must be that the original fairy tales ease the shadow side within each one of us, and more sun comes in. The original fairy tales have soul. There's more to the fairy tales than meets the eye. That's how it seems to me. Charles, I am not trying to convince you of anything. I don't think you missed anything either. You turned out great!

When I see a stock hauler go by I cover it with a prayer of comfort and protection, then look the other way, even if it's empty. This has come along with old age. When I was young I hunted and fished. Can't do that any more. When my dogs catch a critter and bring it home for me to clean and cook for them, I can still do that. I read some of the Grimm horror stories when I was a kid. I don't think I got hold of the worst ones and certainly don't feel deprived. The ones I remember were bad enough. Perhaps in a primitive culture there is a necessity to grow up desensitized to pain and suffering but I don't think it is helpful in our present spiritual adventure. On the other hand it seems like kids ought to be able to handle their goldfish going belly up without a lifelong trauma. Hopefully there is a middle ground for most somewhere between the sociopath and the eco-terrorists. I just don't think kids reading about kids freezing to death or having their thumbs cut off is helping the situation. Our movies are even worse. I could be wrong. Can’t go there.
