12. We are the ones who destroy our surroundings and the thing which makes my heart ache the most is that the animals on our earth have to suffer... no matter if it's destroying their haunt because of global warming or basically animal abuse. Just take a look at those wonderful creatures... Maybe this makes you think for a second... about the things we're probably going to lose, about the world we will have to face... I think about it everyday... Unfortunately many things are beyond my power but I try to change at least the small things...
