Herbivore or Omnivore

I don’t have strong opinions on eating meat. I envy those who can eat a vegan or vegetarian diet. There are several reasons I am not one of those people:

1. I can’t cook. I have tried and I fail 9/10 times.
2. Meat tastes so good. ‘Nuff said.
3. I’m not the most adept at balancing my diet which is critically important for a plant-based diet.

That said, I think that people who can do it are heroes. I feel horrible when I consider the suffering animals endure in meat farms. The lives they live and all of that negative energy must go into the end product and when I consume that, I feel I am taking that negative energy into my body.

Perhaps someday when other areas of my life are stable, I will adopt a plant-based diet. But for now, a varied diet is probably the best for me.
