@luxx and to think you can only gain more of my respect brother! The realm of life was brought to us as a gift of physical manifestation! Weening yourself off the unnecessary resources of life will only get you one step closer to the creator. Respect and honor is given to those who deserve it, you my brother deserve it. I believe if there is a time for meat ingestion, the world will deem when. However, if you can manage to ween yourself off of taking life, that is the beauty of enlightenment. Now, if you work your way away from animals, what about plants? Vegetation, the budding and fruits, the gifts of life given to us through life is the next step. There is a reason fruit is the ultimate gift of life, because it is being handed to us when ready.

I am ecstatic to see what changes your life choices bring you. Thank you for the inspiration.
