2043:
As we look around, we notice
others invading our ‘personal space’ – we’ll either push them away or draw them
in.
What’s the driving
consideration here?
As vegans, promoting Animal
Rights, we want to be effective but we also want some sense of personal achievement,
and that brings us face to face with consequences which involve unintended
outcomes and collateral damage. We might charge through the proverbial ‘china
shop’, smashing recklessly, to show off our ‘forward-drive’, without showing
enough thought as to the consequences.
It could be well intentioned
and yet just another of those ‘me-centred’ activities. Promoting Animal Rights,
which is of deep and genuine concern for most vegan activists, can also
represent our own need for achievement. Is our own needing-to-achieve for the
greater good and centred on ‘humanity’? Or is it just something we just want
for ourselves?
