Very happy to hear that! :) I figure the best way to influence others is by setting a positive example, and showing them that it's very doable and beneficial to their health and overall well-being. Veganism is an excellent way to resolve the healthcare issue, environmental destruction, loss of biodiversity, world hunger, and of course, to eliminate the highly unnecessary cruelty that is being afflicted on billions upon billions of sentient beings every single year. It's about creating a gentler world (which we desperately need).
