If We Each Do A Little, A Lot Is Achieved

It is easy to feel overwhelmed by all the animal cruelty happening in the world, and helpless to change it.  I have known people to say that because they can only do a little, there’s no point in them doing anything at all. If we all had that attitude, nothing would ever change for animals. In fact, each person doing what little they can to help a cause is the only way things have been changed for the better throughout history.

Image: Think of how much power the ocean has. Although we may feel like what we each can do is a drop in the ocean, remember that together, we make up an entire ocean, with all its power.

An enormous amount of progress has been made in regards to the treatment of animals, only because of the large number of people each doing what they can to improve things. In doing what you can to help animals, you are a small part of a huge, powerful machine.

Image: There was a time when the majority of people thought concepts such as the abolition of slavery and votes for women were ridiculous and unrealistic ideas. The cruel exploitation of animals for human gain will one day be seen in the same way as those issues are seen today, because of people like us fighting for that to happen.

Don’t Just Get Angry – Get Active

It is natural to feel angry and upset about the animal cruelty you want to stop. Try to use those feelings to drive you on in the fight to stop the cruelty. Turn your outrage into action, because only DOING things will change things.

Many people feel overwhelmed and completely crushed by animal cruelty. Take the time to go through the emotions you need to, then after that, gather yourself up and take action.

Dwelling on how horrifically animals are treated will just weigh you down and make you less able to help animals. Keep reminding yourself of that if it comes into your mind.

Remember that inaction only helps abusers carry on causing animal suffering, unchallenged and unhindered. Share the information on this site so that other people learn how they can help animals too.
