    The decision to protest is a daunting one. It’s easy to chalk up the lack of involvement to the fear of what could happen when you submit yourself to the world of public objection. It takes a strong mind and a profound calling to partake in a protest. Personally, the decision not to protest has always bothered me more than the decision to stand up. I have passed opportunities to express dissent for something that I felt strongly about due to the possible negative social, emotional, economic, and often physical results of a protest.…

    As far as I can remember, I have always been strongly drawn to horses, just like a moth to a flame. It seems that this deep passion can be found directly in my blood. Maybe I have inherited some kind of a genomic proclivity toward the equine species. As a future veterinarian, it’s indisputable that my love and respect of horses and all living creatures, explain my revulsion and hatred toward animal cruelty, whether it be neglect or intentional. It is a dishonour that millions of animals, placed at high risk of injury, suffering or distress, are used merely for our own entertainment.…
