Glad to share a thought with Albert Einstein

I am no physicist. So E= MC square is little more than typed stuff for me. Matter can neither be destroyed nor created....well, I don't know much about that too. That said, there was an aspect of Einstein, which few might have known because it does not earn millions nor is it a matter that can get anybody Nobel Prize. Here is the quote... "The indifference, callousness and contempt that so many people exhibit toward animals is evil first because it results in great suffering in animals, and second because it results in an incalculably great impoverishment of the human spirit." I felt for the cats, dogs, cattle, horses, pigs, and many other animals who had no voting rights relating to Israel Hamas war, or the Russia Ukraine war. Yet they die, without honor. Get no food, water, die of painful hunger, and injuries of shells. For which sin... And the poem that touched my heart... "I scream! I cry! People see me, they just sigh! Once my dreams were my fairy tale Now they are merely my emotional jail They break me, they haunt me, every night Oh god! What should I do, nothing seems right When I used to wiggle my tail, they pampered and kissed me When they were out of home, they used to miss me I don't know where they are now I want to go back to them, but don't know how I scream, I cry People see me, they just sigh! Every one who passes by, now calls me a stray Nights at street are cold, hot are the days Should I wait and watch for my owners Is there any chance they would come to me And take me back to home someday? The person who wrote this just signed as "Vorak"... I hope our dear friend Pony (@TheHorse), who so much shies from romantic numbers, and is stuck on sad sad sad sad sad parts of life, can come up with A nice Original tune for this...and we can try to upload it on YouTube.....with due credit to Mr. Vorak and of course Ponyji. He is a good composer. This is love. As I understand it.

How a person treats these animals says a lot about his character. I feel so bad when pets are abandoned, but then people don't mind abandoning their own parents when they no more serve the purpose they want a parent for. Many old pets are just left on the streets.

I avoided keeping pets as I feared what would happen to them when I am gone but then I did rescued a puppy in 2023 and now he is a grown up dog.

How a person treats "lower" animals does say a lot about them, I think.

Those who breed dogs, they are not being penalized. So will you compose music for that poem....and sing it? You have a great voice for conveying the sadness.

Animals experience injustice on a daily basis and can't even speak of them. I feel so sorry for them.
