Paradisiac Beauty

Paradisiac Beauty:  A place of ideal beauty or loveliness, relating to or befitting Paradise.

   I want to introduce you to a lovely women named Valerie. 

   Valerie has a blog called Paradisic Beauty, where she writes about the plight of abused
animals all over the world. (www.paradisicbeauty.wordpress.com)


   Val shows us through her written word, how we can begin to change our way of thinking
about animal abuse. She even shows us products and foods that are organic and cruelty free.

   Her topics are diverse. From animal testing in labs, to beautiful wolves being caught and dying in traps, to barbaric "sports" like horse wrangling. And here at home, she writes about the daily abuse that numerous pets endure.
She writes about the ones that no one sees.....she is their voice!

All of these horrific things and many others, go on each and every day, all over the world.
And in EACH instance, the animals die a slow and horribly painful death.
Val shows us real ways we can incorporate cruelty-free living into our own lives.

I think it is honorable and admirable, that Val is taking a stand and showing us the REAL face of animal cruelty. We need more bloggers like her!
I for one, was very inspired by her and started my own "animal rights" blog, too!

When I first read Paradisiac Beauty, I felt like I had found a kindered spirit! And when I got to know her a little more...well, I knew I had!!


Valerie and her family are from Paris, France. She told me that it was her dream to live here in the United States. She and her family now live in Phoenix, Arizona. 
Besides being a gorgeous French women, Val is a wife, a mother to a beautiful daughter, one incredibly cute Golden Retriever and three cats!!

Val also has an ETSY shop, called Paws On The Sand. 
Check out the stunning jewelry she has for sale at www.etsy.com/shop/PawsOnTheSand
I would love for you to check out Val's blog and her Etsy shop!
It's heart warming to know, that women from all over the world feel the same about
the way our animals are treated, AND are trying in their own ways, to do something positive to change things!
Maybe someday, our world will be a "place of ideal beauty and loveliness" for ALL living beings. 
I believe, that's what Val is hoping for too!

Broken Hearts: An Anti-Bullying Campaign

  Today, I want to talk about a topic that has been, well, talked about a lot-- Bullying! Bullying is never okay. In any form and to any living being. It is NEVER okay. We know this, as adults. But, do we really follow what our heart is telling us to do? Do we help others when they are being picked on or laughed at, or cyber bullied? Do we teach our children that we should never bully others, and to stand up to a bully, even if it means telling an adult? I had an experience with London being bullied at the start of the school year in her new school. This had never happed before, and let me tell you,  I was furious! London immediately told me when I picked her up from school that day, and my husband and I talked with her teacher that evening. And we talked about how it made her feel, and how wrong those two girls were for doing that to her. Her amazing teacher, to her credit, handled the situation rapidly and with the concern and anger of, not only a teacher, but a mother.

COMPASSION SCHOOL: Introduction

  Nurturing Compassion, Empathy, and Respect in Children: A Guide Introduction: Teaching children compassion, empathy, and respect for animals and themselves is vital for fostering a more compassionate world. This comprehensive guide explores effective methods to instill these values, nurturing children's empathy and encouraging ethical behavior toward animals and the environment. 1. Lead by Example: Children learn through observation. Demonstrate kindness, empathy, and respect in your interactions with animals and people. Showcase acts of caring for pets and assisting injured animals to imprint these values in their young minds. 2.

Fostering Empathy and Joy

 Compassion School Lessons #2 Fostering Empathy and Joy: The Importance of Pets in a Child's Life As parents, we strive to provide our children with the tools they need to become compassionate, empathetic, and responsible individuals. One of the most powerful ways to instill these values is by encouraging animal companionship within the family. In my own household, our furry and feathered friends have brought immeasurable joy and life lessons to our children's lives. Meet the Crew: Our family is a patchwork of love and rescue stories. Jessame, a one-year-old puppy, was adopted from our local shelter, providing a second chance at a happy life. Alabama, a wise 14-year-old rescue, came into our lives when she needed us the most. Two cats, Timmy and Pumpkin, were born outside on a farm, and their presence adds a touch of adventure to our home. Timmy, who has cerebellum hypoplasia, teaches us about acceptance and resilience daily. Lastly, two cheerful parakeets add a dash of color a
