Hi guys,
So it’s the weekend as usual most people have a lot of fun activities planned out for these days. Remember that you’ll need to be fit to go to work on Monday so play hard but play not too hard lol.
Today’s topic is a topic which brought back a bit of a memory and a laugh to me. I’ve always wondered what being vegan is like. The truth is i don’t think anyone can be a full vegan. I say this because as much as you’ll love to refer to yourself as vegan you still need animals for a lot of things. The clothes we wear, the footwear, the food we eat and a lot of things are made with animal products. As much as some people are against the killing of animals to satisfy our basic needs we must also consider the fact that we have to survive.
I remember when the day I started my attachment at an NGO not too far from my area, when we were having the orientation the speaker said he’s a vegetarian by choice. He said this to mean that at times he can choose not to eat anything meat, fish or eggs but then other times he does. As much as I am someone who doesn’t enjoy as much meat as some of my colleagues I don’t think I can be a vegetarian by choice; yes, I know I don’t like a lot of meat but then I do enjoy a little of it from to time.
See how hard it is for me to avoid meat and the likes? So how do I become a vegan when I can’t even avoid the basic things.
I’ve never thought of being vegan before as that was not the way I was brought up. U was brought up to use and like animal products so it’s going to be really hard for me to just wake up one day and then say I don’t want to use animal products anymore. It’s what I have known for most part of my life. So no I can’t keep up a vegan life for even a day.
Well, people believe in what they want to believe and as much as we try to condemn it we must still respect what they believe in as long as it’s not hurting anyone. I don’t mind a vegan deciding to go vegan because he or she thinks it’s a much healthier way of health. Apart from it being a healthier way to them they also consider it as a way of protecting the animals that live under the same conditions as us.
As far as being a more healthier way of life, we would leave it to them to decide but then we must admit that they are missing out of the numerous nutritional benefits of this animal products.
Is being a vegan something you have considered before? Some people say that it’s a good way of life, will you consider it if there were studies to proof that it is indeed the right way of life?
