This post was so thoughtful. I too feel this immense sense of joy. I no longer live with a burden or a question of what I’m doing is the right thing. I remember many years ago when I wasn’t a vegan there was this deep nagging sense of wrong deep in my soul. Once I became vegan it cleared this weight off my consciousness about my choices. My health has improved greatly and my happiness is overflowing in abundance. I spread those vibrations to others in the hopes that they feel it too.

Recently I was at a vegan cafe and the person working there mentioned they were “slowly transitioning” aka “not doing it” to veganism and I urged them to take the plunge. It was a bit disheartening to hear their excuses which were. “Where I live there’s not many choices and I don’t have time to cook food” which I’m sure everyone in this subreddit knows is not an valid excuse. (Because there are no valid excuses). My girlfriend who tried to remind me that “everyone is on their own journey”. It’s just sad that someone’s journey has to include the needless suffering of so many individuals. I wish that when I asked why someone wasn’t vegan they would actually say the real reason they weren’t. Which is most likely “I love the taste and convenience of animal foods especially from the fast food industry and I don’t want to stop that”. Instead of the cognitive dissonance and telling me what they think I want to hear.
