Today, he tried it. . .but in a good way. One of my favorite co-workers tried a vegan Mediterranean meal. Now, you should know that said co-worker is a supreme carnivore (no cut of meat is off limits for him), so the fact that he tried a vegan meal of falafel, hummus, pita bread and the like may not seem like a big deal to you, but to me it means that he is trying to do better AND that my influence is at least making him think twice about his food choices.
I am vegan mostly for my health, but there is no way that I can deny the effect that veganism has on the planet and on our animals. If you have one vegan meal per week, you can save animal lives, reduce your carbon footprint, ease your conscious and cut and in most cases eliminate your risk of heart disease, cancer, food poisoning, etc. Additionally, you will feel like you can fly, fight crime and save the world at the same time.
It is said that the company you keep makes a huge difference on your outlook and habits. Here's hoping that I will continue to influence others towards a life of deeper consciousness and compassion. I'm incredibly thankful for the opportunity to write, speak, coach and teach about veganism and what it has done for me. What a great reminder to keep pursuing my passion without fail. He couldn't have given me a better gift in the month of November.
