we deprive a soul of the sun, and light,
and of that proportion of life and time
they had been born into the world to enjoy ..."

The issues of animal testing and animal rights came out of nowhere during some researchable surfing and it's what this piece is about. I struggle with it on every level ... as I assume most of us do at some point.

Over the years, I've had more than a few friends who were accountants. Every one of them approached their work, in the broad view at the very least, just as an artist would. They could see patterns and strings and links that engaged them, and passionately so.
