My long term dream has been to have some land with a modest sized home on it and grow my own produce, whilst at the same time creating a haven for animals living wild or possible abandoned 'domestic' animals. Unfortunately i have ended up far from that situation because life swept me in a different direction. I now have a very disabled husband and an Autistic son. I feel that my own morals dictate to me that i cannot contemplate leaving my husband whilst he relies on me so much. Yet i cannot say i am 'happy' with my lot.........
I won't give up on my dreams, though, it sounds a bit cold i know, but i am likely to become a relatively young widow and i hope to be well enough myself to pursue my 'dream life' single handed
.
I also think that you make a good point, Ruby Rose, when i first went vegan i was determined to make my voice heard. I think somewhere along the way i gave up trying, swamped as i felt by people's ignorance and lack of interest
. I definitely made myself ill by worrying so much about things that were out of my jurisdiction and i really can't afford to risk my well being like that again with 2 people solely relying on me.
