Growing Vegan
Growing Vegan. Going Vegan. That's what is on my mind, and that's what I want to blog about. I'm saying 'growing vegan' because that's what is happening to me. It's not like you are an omnivore, or a vegetarian one day and suddenly you are a vegan the next day, and that's it.
As it turns out, veganism is a process. It begins when a seed is planted. (pun intended:-)
Growth rates can be very different. Time from first planting until a shoot appears may take days or weeks or years, it just depends on the seed, and the circumstances, and the person.
The first thing the casual observer might notice is that someone begins eating a bit differently than they have in the past. They might order a veggie burger instead of a hamburger. But the dietary changes are just an outward sign of inward changes.
Actually there must be as many paths to veganism as there are vegans. Weather your path is straight and narrow or long and winding, I hope and encourage you to be ON IT, because the places it can lead you can be quite amazing, as I'm just beginning to learn. I believe that there is no end to this path or the growth that goes on as you walk it. You take one step at a time and see what happens. This little blog will be my way of documenting what happens on my particular path. There are changes going on that I'd like to keep track of. There are already so many that I don't know where to start....but hey!...I 'have' started!
Peace.
