I’m about to be sappy and dumb since this is something super important to me. excuse me when I go on a happy personal rant 🥹
I do my best to keep my diet and choices personal and not put it onto others. What I aim to do is talk and advocate for thoughtfulness and the reduction of meat consumption where possible. There is no expectation for people to be vegan or “perfect”; I want others to care and do achievable positive things.
Often, it is a hard or awkward topic because people will instantly shut it down defensively or feel like they need to justify themselves, but that is not the goal or my intentions. There is no judgment, I only want people to think about it and maybe find ways that work for them 😞
Because of this, I intentionally don’t talk about it with many people and while that is fine, it is such a HUGE part of me and 99.5% of my heart that I don’t get to share with others. Even if I know the person will not be defensive and will engage with me, I still don’t want to leave someone I respect feeling guilty or judged due to the topic and how involved and strict I am with myself.
So when Yoohyeon was talking about animals and tracking a wolf on Fromm, I felt my little animal activist heart really going. I was engaging in the convo but trying to hold back because I didn’t want to get “too much” or say anything that could be interpreted different than I intended. When I asked her if she thought cows were cute and explained how smart and sweet they are, it was me trying to stay chill and bring up an animal I loved a lot and thought she would like lmao
I didn’t expect her to reply to that dumb cow question and would have never ever expected her to follow up with talking about the consideration of reducing meat in her diet??!!
Yeah that made me soo happy and really impacted me. She is someone I respect so much, I think she’s so thoughtful, and I value her opinions so I have really wanted to ask her something like that directly. But, I wouldn’t have ever done it because I’d be worried about making her feel put on the spot, feel that I expected a certain answer, or creating a vibe of moral judgments.
I don’t think she knew the person in Fromm that was asking her about cows cares this much about the topic of meat reduction. What I appreciate is her inherent consideration and openness for the topic and bringing it up herself 🥹 not only that, but bringing it up and expressing it to an audience of all different types of people. Do you know how many people have the care and awareness to do that? I can tell you, not many!!
The personal result for me was that my silly animal advocate self felt so very happy and welcomed. Like I could talk about that big part of my heart with someone whose thoughts I really value.
So… dang. I appreciate her and her character so much. I see what she does and hear what she says and my respect and care grows and grows.
