Hi everyone, My name is Emily and I am a few weeks short of being fifteen. I am a vegan and I enjoy writing, reading, yoga, and other normal teenage things. I am discriminated for being different from my peers a lot, for I do have a different mind-set then most when it comes to pro-peace and animal rights. Just hoping I can find some common ground with some others and meet some cool new people :H
Hello Emily & Welcome to the forums. You should find lots of people with common interests here on these threads. It was a long time ago for me, but I remember very well the taunts and jeers, the name calling, ( Damn Hippie) Love us or leave us..... On & ON..... But now I see that a badge of honor. Keep on Keepin on sisiter... Peaceful thoughts your way..... Farmout

Hi Emily, Don't worry. You sound just like me. It's important to remember that being different makes you who you are and it's better to just be you than be a sheep! Welcome to the forum. Peace to you and all your kind!
