One year ago today…
…I made the conscious decision to go veg. After reading Alicia Silverstone’s book “The Kind Diet,” I immediately knew I wanted a healthier lifestyle that not only benefited my body but the environment and the many animals on this earth. Beyond the weight loss or the increase in energy or the stronger immune system that I experienced from switching to a plant-based diet, I have experienced an internal growth within myself that I never expected. My mind is at ease, my soul is bursting with happiness, and my heart is bigger and more compassionate than ever. I am not by any means perfect and have a long way to go in becoming more sustainable, but I am making progress. I am a student of life and I am a student of this lifestyle. I am willing and eager to constantly be learning and soaking up new information so that I can better live by example. I am going to make mistakes and I am going to have my faults, but I know I will learn from them and in the end become a better human and a better vegetarian.
This has definitely been one of the best decisions of my life and I couldn’t have done it alone. My family and friends have been very supportive of my decision, especially my mom and sister who have been there every step of the way, making small changes in their own life and diet. You are all so amazing. :)
