Spread the love
Celebrating love is an act of resistance. Who are the people that matter the most in your life? Our authors and members of our team have shared some beautiful love stories with us this month to celebrate valentines, family, and our human and non-human friends. We all could use a little more love in our everyday lives!
Brooklyn’s Forever Valentine
Carey Theil, author of Brooklyn Goes Home
“During the three years that Brooklyn lived with us that his closest friend became Gina. She was with him every day, galloping around our office with him, kissing him.”
A New Level of Love
Hope Bohanec, author of The Humane Hoax
“As a long-time vegan and animal advocate, I’ve always respected chickens’ lives. However, I had never lived with a chicken until the day I rescued Kukkuta.”
A Revolutionary Love
Tracey Glover, author of Lotus of the Heart
“Real love is not restricted to our own species anymore than it is constrained by any other category we use to differentiate and divide ourselves from each other. Real love is boundless both in measure and reach. Real love has no limits.”
Kind Love
Anouk Frolic, author of The Be Kind Alphabet
“If we’re lucky, we form a bond so close, we call them our “heart” animal. I have been fortunate so far in my life to have experienced several of those.”
Institute for Animal Happiness
Rebecca Moore, Founder of IFAH
“To IFAH, love is a force for healing, and healing can extend to both the caregiver and the nonhuman person receiving care.”
Summer Showers
Luiza Guimaraes, social media and digital marketing associate at Lantern
“Grandma was loving, and kind, and patient. But she was terrified of storms. Summer storms made her anxious.”
