Shattered

Don't you just hate it when you give so much of yourself that the person you care for, and gave every effort to spend time with, turns around and tells you, that you are using them, when all you have just done is go through hell with them... WTF!!!

I don't know if my heart will ever be the same again...

Pic of the Week

I have had a really low week... glad it's over... 

Here is my pic for the week... 

ACTION ALERT!!!! CALL TO ACTION!!! Update!!!

Sea Shepherd South Africa

So I hear there should be some happy Dolphins out there swimming freely today... except for uShaka... Yay!!! Mango Airlines have removed the spot a dolphin at uShaka from their bucket list and replaced it with a new list.. "Spot a Dolphin on our Coastline"

Below is the letter I received after sending in my 2 cents worth.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Frederic,

Mango is an ardent supporter of conservation and as a matter of fact it forms a significant part of our overall sustainability drive which we recently announced.

We have placed the dolphin in captivity faux pas at the top of our agenda and have now aligned this Bucket List challenge with our policy on sustainability. To this end, we are amending the challenge to spotting a dolphin in the wild, along the Kwa-Zulu Natal coastline. After all, the abundance of dolphins in the area was cause for the naming of the Dolphin Coast along the northern Durban shoreline.

I trust that this would satisfy your concern.

Kind regards

Hein Kaiser

Mango Corporate Affairs

I also noticed that this letter happened to be an identical note that was sent to another friend of mine... so I hope they have kept to their word...

Help Save the Dolphins! Do Your Part!
