Continuing movement toward vegetarianism

I continue in my efforts to show kindness toward conscious sentient animal lives (as well, of course, peace-seeking toward all humans).


Sometimes, I am still a second-hand vegetarian (gentle humor) like when I am with relatives celebrating. I don’t insist on a vegetarian meal. That would be discourteous.

I just quietly eat only the vegetables, beans, potatoes, etc., skipping bad meats—high conscious animals' lives such as pigs, cows, and sheep, or if there are other animal products, I select an item low on the food chain, a least conscious creature.

For at this late stage in my life, I avoid not only what is wrong to do but also the “self-righteous” rigid attitude of the crusader.
My movement toward vegetarianism isn’t intolerant fundamentalist, but centered in kindness and altruism, aimed toward not only no harm— but toward the Good, the True, the Just, and the Kind-Caring.

Maybe, a gentle witness toward care for all animals will be a stronger witness than an in-your-face veganism.

In the Light,

Daniel Wilcox
