Quote:Honestly, I do not know what to do at this point. I keep running into walls with those around me that refuse to look at their food eating habits, and I do not see a way around it other than bringing it up again and again - that would create even more resistance towards the subject.
I guess the only way to do this is really the peaceful one for me: keep exercising, stay in better and better shape and be an example of how one can stay fit even without meat. (Also, donate, but to whom? I cant donate to lessen the pain and restriction on those poor animals.)
I fully understand Oldern. All we can really do is be the change ourselves. I feel it's a personal decision, and some people just aren't ready to accept certain things. I've found lately, that people have been quite intrigued and receptive to vegetarianism. When I tell them why, (health, cruelty, oneness, etc) I can see them thinking about it. They must come to the decision for themselves. I firmly believe if everyone watched just even one youtube clip on factory farming, etc, they would all kinda freak out. Ignorance is truly bliss at times.

Not a good thing to watch if the heart chakra is already in overdrive.
Interesting Pickle. I've never thought of that. Maybe I'm in overdrive, because I got tears in my eyes just watching that video clip. That's not typical of me.
