About

"...and we all shine on, like the moon and the stars and the sun..."

For a while now, I have been increasingly aware about how the day to day way I chose to live my life affects the environment, the animal kingdom and human beings around the globe . I have been bought up in a very compassionate household and, as I get older, I realise that this is one of the most important qualities someone can possess.

I had been an one again/off again vegetarian since the age of 11 and in 2014 committed myself to a lifetime of no meat for compassionate reasons. Recently, I have began to realise there are many different points to look at - not just food but health, clothing, cosmetics, habitat... the list goes on! I guess it can seem a bit overwhelming at times trying to retain and manage all these issues and developing an opinion on them. The idea is to leave the most positive, ethical and moral imprint on the world as I possibly can and learn as much about how to do that as humanly possible!

There is still so much I have to discover, and that's why I decide to start a blog. I wanted to make a journal of discovery, an analytical account of what I encounter, what I learn and how I develop my views to try and live a life that, I feel, is the kindest one I can do on this earth.

I aim to log things I learn, documentaries I watch, books I read, food I cook, new articles I see, personal points of interest and whatever else I can in this road to discovery! I feel as though a lot of other people probably feel the same way as I do and maybe feel a little bit lost at a time of self-adjustment and change so please, if you do discover this little blog, please say hey, leave a comment and let me know your own point of view.

Thanks.
Here's to the journey,

Em
