I'd like to meet:
I would like to meet other like minded people: thinkers, dreamers, animal lovers, people involved in animal rights/welfare issues and people with compassion for one and all. Also, Persons with a mental illness or who have family or friends with a mental illness. I would especially like to meet others who have a parent with a mental illness. Persons who have physical illness or disease, persons who have gone through or are still going through an abusive relationship. People who truly care about the state of the world today and wish to take part in helping to make that change. Friendly people. People who have been deeply hurt. People who isolate. People who feel that they just don't "fit in". People with eating disorders. People who are struggling with drug or alcohol addictions or are close to someone who is or has. Or, people who just need a friend. Even if we live all the way on the other side of the world.. Its nice to know that someone somewhere is thinking about you and cares. Even if they don't know you personally. If you want a friend to keep contact with, send a lil note to every once and a while and get the same in return.. I'll be your friend.. if you will be mine =)
Also, I grew up in Rochester, NY and am hoping to find friends I have lost touch with over the years. Schools I attended were St. Helens, School 44, Our School, and Rochester Christian School.

The Witness,
In the award-winning documentary THE WITNESS, Eddie Lama explains how he feared and avoided animals for most of his life, until the love of a kitten opened his heart, inspiring him to rescue abandoned animals, become a vegetarian, and ultimately, to bring his message of compassion to the streets of New York.
With humor and sincerity, Eddie tells the story of his remarkable change in consciousness, sharing along the way some of the shocking realities of the meat and fur industries.
Featuring the song "Angel" by Sarah McLachlan, this is a story of beauty and transcendence in the face of tragedy and despair.
At a time when factory farming is in the headlines for putting the environment and public health at risk, Peaceable Kingdom takes its audience on an eye-opening journey to the heart of this unfolding national drama.
Propelled by the testimony of farmers who have themselves come to question the fundamental assumptions behind their community's way of life, the film delivers a riveting portrait of human and animal lives caught up in an out of control industrial machine.
Much more than an exposé, Peaceable Kingdom is about personal redemption, commitment, healing and hope, offering a life-changing vision of a peaceful world that is well within our reach.

My Great Grandmother Victoria Battaglia aka Nanny (above) who passed on when I was very young. She came to the United States around 1900 from Calabria, Italy with her husband and family members to start a new life. She was a very strong woman and a passionate animal lover.
My Great Aunt Catherine Battaglia aka Kiki (above) who passed on in 1996. She raised me thoughout the years that my mother could not. She had great love and respect for animals which she passed onto me and allowed me to take in strays at 7 years old.. which molded me into the person I am today.
and...
My Mother Patricia Delany (above) who passed on 10/4/04 at the young age of 49. She was an amazingly strong woman who suffered her entire life with a very sever form of Schizophrenia. Through her I learned to see life in a different light than most. I learned compassion, understanding, tolerance and patience. She was a wonderful mother, teacher and friend.
