Sanctuary
We all need places of sanctuary, where we feel safe and secure; places of rest and rejuvenation, where our bodies can heal and our minds can refresh. This is especially true when we are vulnerable or suffering from trauma. Animals are no different. I had an opportunity to visit the Pristina Bear Sanctuary, home to twenty magnificent creatures that were rescued by the Four Paws charity. Before they found refuge at the sanctuary, the bears lived tortured lives in tiny cages as pets or providing ‘entertainment’ at restaurants. Sanctuaries remind us that compassion can still triumph over cruelty. They deserve our support.
