My love for animals and helping the voiceless, volunteering with various rescues for over 15 years, this has brought me so much joy in life!

When I was younger, say mid twenties, I may had less wrinkles and less worries but also less life knowledge. Today at 54, I feel like I have the wisdom to accomplish anything I put my heart and soul into. This is what I love about being over 40!
How do you stay fabulous?I stay true to myself and what I believe in. I've been a vegetarian for 34 years and a vegan for over 3 years, It hasn't been as easy as I thought it would but I wouldn't change a thing!
What would you do with the $40,000?My dream since I was 17, to open a shelter, with acres of property, so I could accept as many rescues as needed. I would not turn any one away, dogs, cats, horses, pigs, sheep, the list is endless. Any animal in need, could come and live out their life, in peace and free. Puppies, kittens, seniors, any and all are welcome and I wouldn't turn anyone away. I know that 40,000 won't pay for what I'm dreaming about but it will certainly help to get this started!
