[vacantness] just curious

Go slowly. You (we) cannot expect everyone to embrace your newly (?) uncovered wisdom. Consider, gradually, to verbally spoon feed them the benefits of eating lower on the food chain. Point out the enormous amounts of natural recourses we waste e.g., shaving rain forests , consuming too much water, land erosion, etc., while trying to raise hormone infested animals, and, as such deprive the children of our extended family, also known a grandchildren, of the nutritional sustenance they and their progeny need to stay healthy. Is it better to be a healthy garbage collector or a sickly lawyer? Fresh food, mostly fruit encourage feelings of well being. Be kind while completing these tasks; as I suspect you are.

 

Love and Light,

PS: Who is buying and filling up the cupboard these less desirable foods?

You'll find a way, Hon, trust you and Him.

Can anyone tell me how they managed to cope with partners, family, etc, after becoming vegan. My partner says that I am being unreasonable because I won't buy him or his daughter meat or dairy products and cook them for him and her. I explain to him that I don't believe in eating meat or dairy products and that i think it is wrong and he says that I am trying to force my opinion on him which he says is unfair. I don't see how I can abstain from animal products myself and yet buy and cook them for other people. Am i being unreasonable? He also asks what i would do when inviting people out to a restaurant for a meal. Would I only pay for the meals of people who ate animal free meals or would i pay for all meals even if they had meat as one of the courses? I replied that I would probably take them to a vegan restaurant so that there was no conflict but he says that i am being unrealistic. Please, can anyone offer advice? i live in northwest England by the way, between Manchester and Blackpool, in a town called Preston.Markx
