About my vegan life
Conscious, healthy and sustainable lifestyle
I became a vegan to a trip to Segovia, when I arrived there were killing some pigs, This experience, and being surrounded for weeks by a culture practically based on animal mistreatment (intensive farms, butchers, animal-based gastronomy, confinements and bullfights). bulls, etc.) was the confirmation that the veganism that was premiering was here to stay.
When the blindfold falls off, you see nothing the same. Suddenly you see clearly a reality that you had before blurred, and when this happens, there is no turning back.
Having rich alternatives at hand, it is easier to live your choice from joy and freedom (and not from renunciation) when around you are eating sweets, chocolates, cheese, ice cream, ... foodstuffs that until recently you considered food and now you know ( also with the heart, and not only with the mind) that have generated suffering to other beings.
Recently, I asked my vegan or vegetarian friends how their transition had been. Not exactly the transition, but how his group of friends and his family had taken it since then. I start from the basis that, although they do not know, 95 percent of the population has been educated in constant disrespect and that has made it have a very low scale of what is "disrespectful".
Generally, the news at home, if you have to eat, does not feel good. Anyway, once the novelty happens, people usually worry: "At first I had to take the lunch box to family meetings, but now they worry about there being food for me at the table". On the part of the friends, the thing usually goes better (not to be the typical funny person who is saying all the time that the plants also feel, but he will not stop eating lettuce because he is not so aware of his screams of pain). As humans we have this need for group acceptance, at first you can feel a little bit just eating your vegan dish in a corner.
I agree with Leonardo Da Vinci when he said that "the moment will come when humanity will see the killing of animals as it now sees the killing of people".
Being a vegan is a philosophy of peace and compassion towards all forms of life.
I know that culturally veganism may seem like an extremist option, but in me I feel it as a more peaceful and compassionate way of being in the world.
When you become aware, you organize your life differently to be true to yourself 🙂
