I really wanted to title this blog "Becoming Vegan" or "Becoming Human" but both have already been taken so the next best way to describe this journey I am about to embrace, and since I happen to be Italian, is to simply state the facts...
"No More Meatballs".
No More Meatballs! No more indulging in the habit of devouring those succulent little balls on top of a sprawling plate of piping hot pasta covered in homemade tomato sauce that has been cooking for hours and sprinkled with hand grated parmesan and Romano cheeses. No more cow, no more pig, no more chicken, no more fish. I am resigning from the Butter of the Month Club for good!
Why, why you may ask? Is it for health, is it for humanity, is it for animal rights, is it to protect the environment, is it to become one with unity consciousness? Why would I embark on such an arduous task, knowing as I do, that I never stick to anything?
I'm doing this for all of the above and because something is changing inside me. Somehow a light bulb has gone off and illuminated certain truths, awakening an awareness I've never known, and now that I know, I can never go back.
This is a journey and I make no promises. This will be a process, an adventure down a an uncharted path I have never traveled.
