last vegans

I am for the third time attempting to re-post this entry in my blog. Hope the third time works.

I have been wanting to become a vegan for the longest time. I hope I will become successful this time around. The last time I tried to become one I only lasted two and a half days. Being a vegan has its perks and, well, negative effects on the body too.

Daniel, one of the Bible's foremost character is a vegan. And he grew up to become a fine young man. He was considered to be one of the most handsome during his time, and of course, smartest and the healthiest. He refused to eat anything that's not planted.

Vegetarianism is one of the more popular tenet of the Buddhists. They say if you eat meat, you will become unpure. As they say, it has life and it's quite "fishy". The blood that gets that into your body makes you unpure. Therefore, if you must visit the temple, you must abstain from eating meat (whether it's your partner's meat, or animal meat). For me, this falls under the concept of Karma...

Well they say if you eat vegetables and fruits, you will feel better, lighter and move faster. Being full of vitamins and minerals too you can be assured that you will become healthy.

However, they are also saying that vegetables have become contaminated with lead and formaldehyde. Nothing out there is safe, anymore. And what goes with your vegetables is also quite tricky. If you cook your vegetables, or put oil on your salad then it still becomes unhealthy.

Bottomline, i want to lose the unnecessary weight and become healthy once again. The last time I practiced to become a vegan i miserably failed. Maybe i should pace myself this time and learn how to do it.

They say people who are vegans live longer. For all we know, I may this Earth's last vegan.. :)
