I want to say it's official. I want to say that I'll be vegan for the rest of my life. Yeah, I know, it's only Day 5. Tonight I watched Vegucated, a guerrilla-style documentary that follows three meat and cheese loving New Yorkers who agree to adopt a vegan diet for six weeks and learn all the gory details of the industry plus health benefits of the lifestyle. (check it out on Netflix)
Again, I found myself reduced to tears. The movie depicted the recurring nightmare from my childhood trauma. A baby cow was born and immediately dragged from it's mother. In addition to the other horrific scenes of terrified chickens and pigs maimed, mistreated and murdered, I couldn't hold back the waterworks. My heart hurts. I am slightly comforted knowing that the most and best I can do is choose Vegan for myself. As long as I am that, I am. One person at a time.
I'm becoming more convicted, empowered and inspired. This daily blog is evidence of that. I am thankful, I am so thankful. Glory to God.#AnimalsAreTeachersNOTfood
