A Doctrine for Animals by Dr. Harp Seal

 

A Doctrine for Animals

Good evening friends.

Thank you for stopping by.  Tonight’s blog post is an organized list of many of our Animal Quotes that struck a chord with the world in one concise post.

1. “The Path to a better World flows through the Humane treatment of all Animals”

2. “Animal is equality is a tireless journey. There will be No retreat”

3. “If the Meek shall inherit the Earth, what will the Animal inherit, who is more Meek than them?”

4. “I Never got the Email from God or Mother Nature that says people can decided which Animals live, which die, and by what numbers”

5. “None of our Vanities are important enough to make an animal suffer to satisfy them. Say No to Fur. We all know how Fur is brought to the Market, if people still wear it knowing that, they’re bad people”

6. “Where is the Geneva Convention for Animals?  Our enemies get treated better than Animals and Animals are completely innocent”?

7. “The only thing it means that people are smarter than Animals, is that People are smarter than Animals. It means Nothing else”

8. “Profit is never an excuse to torment  and kill Animals. Money is important in this life, but Not that important”  (Seal Hunts in Canada, Dolphin Hunts in Japan, Dog and Cat Meat trade throughout Asia, the Fur market around world, Bull fighting in Spain, Dog fighting anywhere in the world, and so on and so on, and so on.

9. “Animals first, People second. The reason for that is because People can take care of both, Animals Cannot”

10. “Animals are angels walking amongst us. Who else in this life shows us such unconditional love and loyalty”

11. “Mother Nature and the Wild is tough enough on Animals. The last thing they need is for people to stack the deck even further against them”

12. “Love is the Universal Language.  All Species Speak it”

13. “The Fruits of the Earth are Plentiful enough for all Animals and People to live in Abundance”

14. “One random act of kindness may not change the world, but it changes the world for the recipient of that kindness”

15. “Animals have it hard enough with Mother Nature. The last thing they need is for people to stack the decks even further against them.”

16. “To all the animals I see each day that are “To Be Destroyed,” Dr. Harp Seal and Family wants them to know each and every one of them meant something to the world.

17. “No animal’s lives will go in Vain. No pain will go unnoticed.”

18. “Hunting is Not a Pastime like watching a Football game. Hunting is Murder. Stop being a JERK”

19. “This land is their land, this land is our land, this land is made for them and us”

20. “One random act of kindness may not change the world, but it changes the world for the recipient of that kindness”

Just some thoughts for us to keep abreast on. Thank you for reading. Dr. Harp Seal for Sammy & Family.

Goodnight from Sammy & Family on November 6th, 2015

Vane and Scott 3

Goodnight dear friends and family.

This is Jessica Lee Smith writing to you tonight. Happy Friday night to all of you. Before i get into my message, please try not to be distracted by my brother’s bedroom eyes.  It’s caused him a great deal of trouble in his life.  He is wearing glasses to detour some of the allure.  Thank you Scott, that is very gracious of you.

If you’re going out tonight, be sure to stay safe out there. Always stay aware of your surroundings. Never leave your drink unattended, and please never ever drink and drive. Also, it’s always better to travel in “packs”. It’s safer to walk down the street with at least one other person, if not more.

If you’re staying in tonight, rest well. It’s been a long week. I hope you have a wonderful evening with your loved ones, two legged and four. Spend this weekend doing what you enjoy most, and try to take in some of this magnificent scenery we are surrounded by.

Thank you all so much for the support, love and encouragement that you’ve shown my brother, myself, and my whole family. It means more to us  than you could ever know. We love you all. You’re such a blessing to us.

Have a great night everyone.

No lives will go in vain. No pain will go unnoticed. Amen.

Love from,
Jessica Lee Smith,
For Sammy & Family

A personal message from Scott Smith and Dr. Harp Seal

A personal message from Scott Smith on Gratitude

Good evening friends.

It’s great to be alive on November 5th, 2015.  Good, bad or indifferent, today is a gift.  Many people that were here yesterday are no longer with us.  We have to remember that.  A lot of people pass on each day that wanted to live.  We owe it to them and ourselves to live this life as best we can.

In recovery I was taught what gratitude means.  Whether you had those kind of problems or not, living a grateful life is an open invitation for all to enjoy.  Again, I used to think that life was a series of losses and then you die. Now I know life is a series of experiences and then you grow.

Had I not gotten into alcohol and substances, I would’ve never gone into recovery and learned what happiness means.  I would have just kept being miserable whether I was sober or not.  The good news is that its not a prerequisite to get into the trouble I did to be free. You don’t have beat the hell out of yourself to realize whats important.

Things can always be better, things can always be worse. The question is; “What am I grateful today?” — Whoever those people were that told me life is better with the glass half full, than half empty, you were dead right.  Nobody needs to give themselves a beat down with alcohol and drugs to understand that. Just accept it as a truth, and a fact from a person who has made more mistakes than 1000 people put together.

Happy Poppy Tuesday on October 20, 2015

Poppy October 20, 2015

Good morning friends.

Happy Poppy Tuesday.  A day filled with Hope and Possibilities.  Remember, if the Pops can do it, anyone can.  This is the Pops and I when we first came together.  His heart was still bruised from his start in life at this point. He was still wondering wast this is his new home or is it just temporary.

He had known yet that he completed Sammy & Family.  This was two year ago.  And now the Pops is the star of our community every Tuesday.  Not bad for a little boy that was lost in NYC and nobody wanted him. While we do have 4 other dogs that we love to death, I must admit I do favor Poppy.  The rest of the crew are cool with that also.  Its almost like our other dogs know Poppy had a very rough start in life.

I would literally in jump in front of a bus to save him no matter what the consequence. I could Not image a life without him.  I’m starting to think its time to ramp up my tattoo collection, one for each dog we have. I just hope that doesn’t make people nervous when I start my frozen Snickers dreamson the beach, lol.

OK friends, lets kick this Poppy Tuesday off with two Positive Notions.

1. The path to a better world flows through the humane treatment of all animals.

2. There are no coincidences in life, everything happens for a reason.  For example, Dog spelled backwards is “God”

See you tonight friends. Day 283 here in Puerto Rico.

Fear Thy Neighbor

Fear Thy Neighbor

Good morning friends.

In lieu of the shooting in Oregon we are going to skip our normal morning post. Sammy & Family sends our thoughts & prayers for the victims and their families. Last count that I read, 10 students were killed and 7 injured at a Umpqua Community.

If anyone would like to stop reading here, just a respectful heads up this post is now headed in different direction.

I said a few weeks ago when people were freaking out about the Iran Nuclear deal, that not to fear, we will all die of something else other then a Nuclear attack from Iran. Whether it be cancer, heart attacks, natural causes or random killing sprees that have become somewhat common in this country.   I stand by those words a few weeks ago and I stand by them now.

Don’t fear a 13 year old Muslim that built a clock, fear thy neighbor.  In fact don’t fear the Muslim at all, just fear thy neighbor.   The answer is simple and clear to me, the Second Amendment needs to be abolished and the NRA should be looked at a subsidiary of the KKK.  When I hear the letters “NRA”, I immediately think of murdering racists. I am referring to murdering in the sense of the killing of millions of innocent animals just for the fun and sport of it.  But its an illustration that many people just like to kill. They like it. They enjoy it.  Believe me, if it was legal to kill people they would do that too. Is everyone in the NRA like that ? No. But most of them are. — “The Right to Bear Arms” is a bullshit term. What is means is, “I like to kill and cant wait to use my firearms”

I want to further address that just because something is constitutional and from our founding fathers doesn’t make it perfect or infallible.  I would like to remind people our founding fathers had slaves.   In the days of the Horse & Buggy’s from past several hundred years,  maybe “The Right to Bear Arms” meant something.  In today’s times its a bullshit term and means Nothing Productive.

The Second Amendment needs to go, deleted like a bad file.  No civilians should have the right to bear arms, period.  Just ask the people from Columbine, Sandy Hook, the killing spree in a Colorado movie theater, the recent Church shootings in South Carolina, or two year old girl that accidentally shot her father to death in Alabama, and now this at a community college in Oregon.

We are living in 2015 and referring to the “Founding Father’s” like they are the holy grail. Well I got news for everyone, they’re not. And some of what they said has become outdated. They were people just like us, and they made mistakes just like we do now. The Second Amendment is one of those mistakes. Enough is Enough.

I will close with this, don’t fear the Muslim or Iran, fear thy neighbor.

Sincerely,

Scott Smith

To Love and be Loved

To Love and be Loved

Goodnight Dear Friends and Family.

This is Jessica writing to you tonight. The weekend is right around the corner. We hope that everyone has arrived home safely tonight and that you’re all resting and well.

Its amazing how you can be in the midst of so much turmoil in your life, and miracles and special people seem to show up , even within all of the darkness. These people can somehow feel like Gods messengers. Sometimes you just know that a power greater than you is sending you a lifeline, some sign of hope. A message that you are in fact, not alone, although you may feel that way.

Even here on our Everybody Loves Sammy page, my family and I have been so blessed with special friendships and love. I can’t begin to tell you how much that means to us. It’s just a reminder that when you give out love to others, life sends love right back to you, and we are ever so grateful for that.

The most important thing we can do of all, is absolutely never quit, under any circumstances at all. No matter what comes our way in life, we must make it through to the end and never stop fighting. This is each of our own personal journeys, and each step in this journey is very important to our souls growth. Even the hurtful times have taught us something, although we would have rather have not had those times at all.

What is life really about , if not to love and be loved? What will be our legacy? It is Not the things that we have, but how we have touched the lives of others , how we have loved the most important people in our lives, and how we have been loving and gentle to all living things. This is all we can strive for and hope to attain, and each day is a journey toward that.

Just know that your life means more than you even realize. How you live will leave ripple effects long after you have gone from this world. Your legacy does and will mean something, if you live and love with all of your heart.

No lives will go in vain. No pain will go unnoticed. Amen.

Goodnight everybody. Sweet dreams to all.  Jessica Smith for Sammy & Family.

In the name of “D” we pray

Prayers for D, he's fighting for his life and makes the world a better place

Goodnight dear friends and loved ones, this is Jessica.

We hope that you enjoyed your day. Many times even the smallest acts of kindness and scattered moments here and there can mean so much. They can change the course of our whole day.  We pray that everyone has arrived home safely and is relaxing.

We’d like to ask all of our friends out there to Pray for our very dear family friend , who we will call “D” — D is in the hospital at this time and He is facing the biggest fight of his life. We want him to know that he will not face it alone. We met our friend D almost 30 years ago and we simply adore him. He has been an incredible force of positivity and love for our whole family. He is more than a friend to us, he is a member of our family. We hurt when he hurts. But the one thing we know whole heartedly is that this man is a living superhero. He brightens up the lives of everyone he meets and everyone that crosses his path. He has given others hope for all of his life. He has helped people recover from sickness and serious injuries. He has restored the spirits of the broken. He is a very spiritual man and is unconditionally kind to everyone.  He has been there for my family through thick and thin. No one has a heart like his. We love him more than anything.

Please come together in prayer for our loved one. We know that he can pull through this. He is a champion and a fighter like no other, but we need your prayers. We pray that He is fully healed and fully cured. We pray that he has not a day of pain or fear. We pray that he returns home again to all of his loved ones. We pray that God puts his healing hands on our D and performs a miracle. If ever a spirit Deserved that , it would be him. His family needs him, we need him, his friends need him and the world needs him. He is a soul with light illuminating from within him. Dear God please bless this man for all of the love that he gives to others and all of the wisdom he passes on. Show him that kindness that he has always shown to all people.

Scott Smith here for a quick comment on D.  He was there for us in 1984 when our father died. and was the spine of our family for many years until we could sail on our own.  “D” was and is bigger then life.  I will quote e a line from the movie “Shawshank Redemption”  — “Some birds aren’t meant to be caged, their feathers are too bright”

Thank you all so much. Goodnight ❤️

No lives will go in vain. No pain will go unnoticed. ️Amen. Love from,
Jessica Lee Smith,
For Sammy & Family

Great News from EU on maintains the Sealing Ban; Still questions remain

EU maintains ban on Sealing Industry

Good evening friends.

We hope everyone had a nice weekend. Dr. Harp Seal  & family wanted so share some great news for Harp Seals that was announced on September 8th, 2015 from the Humane Society’s FB Page. This picture also comes from their Facebook page.

Here’s the news below, then we will just make a few comments on it.

“Good news: Today, the European Parliament voted overwhelmingly to strengthen the EU ban on trade in seal products, just days after the European Court of Justice dismissed a final appeal by the sealing industry that sought to annul the ban. This means that a huge market will remain closed to products of commercial sealing!”

That is good news because the Seal Clubbers tried to lift the ban and the EU held their ground.  Dr. Harp Seal did an audio on this a few months back if you remember. Sealing is a dying industry and has been for years. Nobody is buying the Fur anymore because the outrage about the brutality inflicted on these baby seas.  The audio is at the end of this post if you would like to hear it….

We still question three things,

1. Why does Canada still subsidize a dying industry ?

2. Cant Canada just write a check the Seal Clubbers to Not kill the seals so they get their money anyway ? Another words, if Canada is forking up some subsidies for a dying industry to continue, we say, fork up the money and leave the seals alone. Sammy & Family is not understanding that one, we really are not.

3. DrHarpSeal & Family wants to drill this point home; even if the SealingIndustry was booming with record profits, it still should have NEVER been allowed.

If you would like to hear Dr. Harp Seal’s Audio on the Sealing Industry, here’s the link;  https://soundcloud.com/dr-harp-seal/my-recording-145

No lives will go in vain, no pain will go unnoticed. Dr. Harp Seal for Sammy & Family.

Happy National Dog Day

Nicholas from NYC leads us out for National Dog Day tonight

Good evening friends  We have a very special visitor leading us out tonight for “National Dog Day”  — This is our great friend Nicholas from NYC.  His human dad’s name is Jim, also a great friend to Sammy & Family.

Nicholas is one of the sweetest dogs in all of NY.  He is exceptionally smart and happy. Nicholas has been making people smile from all over the world the last couple of years.  Its no wonder why either, Jim loves his boy more than anything.

Nicholas is also a beacon for animal kindness.  Jim and his boy have been very active participants in animal welfare.  Its an honor to have they leading us out tonight.

We hope that all dogs around the world had a happy National Dog Day today. Lord knows they all deserve it.  Sadly we know its not the case for too many of them.  Lets keep their well being in our thoughts and prayers.

With that friends we are going to call  it a night.  We want to thank Jim and Nicholas for joining a tonight.  Its always nice to be surrounded by animal loving friends.
