Just Writing From My Heart
Tonight, I'm just writing from my heart. I don’t have one particular topic to blog about, but it’s just been one of those days... where I need to say how I feel.
I rescue animals. I think that’s pretty apparent... to anyone who comes in contact with me.
“Hey Ash, it seems to me... you must like dogs?”
Who, me?? No…
... Not so much.
It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that I love dogs, & all animals. I want to help them --all of them, in every way that I can.

But… I'm just one person.
One girl, trying to save the world.
And sometimes, that wears on your heart.
Your relationships suffer. Your health suffers. Your overall well-being isn't that great..
Because... you rarely put yourself first.
But for me, it’s all worth it.
I'm incapable of NOT being this way.
It’s what makes me… me.
But I guess the frustration comes in, when—day after day—you see these things happening, & you're one of few... working to put an end to the suffering.
That's especially the case... in Mississippi...
The state of Mississippi is the worst-of-the-worst when it comes to animal cruelty.
And that's not just my personal opinion.
An incredible, international animal activist... who's seen it all-- across the globe... agrees with me...
And he'll tell you the same... about my state.
Things are bad here. Things need to change here. People need to CARE that this is happening.
Beyond that... Mississippi is one of four states, where animal cruelty is considered a "misdemeanor" offense. Are you kidding me? It’s a joke, really. But an un-funny joke... that makes me want to scream...

Soo... when I share a heartbreaking story about a dog in a horrible situation here, I'm not trying to offend or upset people. Honestly... I’m not.
I'm simply sharing... to make people aware that these things are happening. They're happening in my state... and likely... in your state, too.
I want people to know what’s going on. I want them to know the truth… so they can get angry. Angry enough to say, NO MORE. This has to stop.
I want to inspire people to get involved... to make a difference. In ANY way that you can. Every person is capable of making a difference in the world, but... in order to make this happen... you have to ACT.

Advocate, Volunteer, Foster, Adopt, Donate...
Even if you have only $5 to donate, then that’s something....
Well… let me be honest. If you have like four million dollars in the bank, & you reach around all those hundreds in your pocket ... to pull out a crisp, 5 dollar bill for the animals...
Well… okay, I just won’t go there.
But every little bit helps, & every action towards change helps to change the world.
And change can start... NOW!
Change can start... with YOU!
