live in harmony.
They are waiting for us

This week
the European Union
Banned
cosmetics with
ingredients tested
on animals.
This is as historic
in my opinion
as any Civil Rights law.
How we treat
the helpless
expresses
what we are made of.
The rest of us
need to push for this
in our own
nations.
Congratulations, Europeans!

oh i agree on the animal rights....how we treat our animals in many ways reflects how we treat others....

If 311 million people simply quit using the crap and started looking and smelling like humans again not only would they quit testing but we'd all be better for it.
What a lovely post!
Always love to read and follow your blog. These quotes are so precious and yes, animal rights should be even more important, mind:
The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated

hooray!
I could not agree more with you. And thank you for saying it.
You are so right. The things humans do to animals...
Your photos are much fun. We had snow last night, again! Spring is in the air.
Cheers from Cottage Country!
I love the fun pictures. Yay for the EU. I voted for not makeup, too.

We are celebrating over here in Europe - finally! Now the US can follow our lead...
I like the shaq quote
I share. I like very much the yellow grass of your shots. Ciao dall'Italia. Baci=kisses

Hear, hear! Love the sprinkler shots Cloudia, so fresh on a hot day.
Had a good laugh at the quote on women!
We just need that law passed here! I hope it sets a good precedence as our cosmetics industry is huge. I'm also chuckling over the pessimist/optimist quote:)
I love each of you. Thanks SO much
We have quite a list of things we shouldn't be doing. It comes down to our priorities, and the cost we are willing to bear.
The pictures are perfect, the quotes are necessary, but, things that you said are truly beautiful, good for the Europeans.
that's good to hear.
loved the 2nd quote. :)
Good for them. I hope that Canada and our neighbours to the south follow suit soon.
Optimists rule....and oddly enough I have three eager tails waiting at the door to go outside! :)
What a brilliant law. I wish that more people were aware that make-up and shampoo and perfume ARE tested on animals.
I loved the joyous action shots on this post as well - thank you.
The water sprays brings fun in warm weather. Good pictures.
