help animals

This is one of those goals that never ends, really. I believe I’ve accomplished it since I’ve stayed vegetarian for 6 months and I know I’m not going to give that up. But other tasks, like volunteering at shelters, can still be done.

I’m still meat-free.
Some hardcore vegetarians could say I’m a cheater since I eat seafood still, but I’m still really proud of myself. People have been against it, but I’ve shrugged them all off and I’m still going strong.

I’ve always felt a little guilty when I ate meat. It just seemed so unfair! I’d tell myself that someday I’d become a vegetarian- like when I’m 18. But a couple weeks ago, I started learning more about animal rights, what they do to animals when they make the meat (besides killing), etc. and I realized I needed to be a vegetarian NOW. I’ve been cutting down on meat for a couple months, but I actually left it out of my diet completely about two weeks ago. There are so many reasons why I’d never want to pick up chicken or pork or beef and think “mmm, food!”
Because to me, it’s not.
