Free-willed humans guard their own space. No one gets in without permission. Vegans may want a chance to influence others’ thinking but is that going to happen? We, as advocates for the ‘forgotten ones’, want to get inside the omnivore’s head, rearrange a few parts, get them to see things another way … but we go nowhere without their permission. We may want to give our omnivore friends our best shot, but first we have to encourage them into thinking. Thinking big.
I‘m planning on driving over to your place, along rough roads … I’m at home, searching for my car keys, I find them, I turn on the ignition, the car actually works, the machine will get me there. In specific ways I know the roads better, my machine functions well on these roads, it lets me travel over towards you, so maybe I can meet you MORE than half way, your car’s not used to difficult surfaces and it’s a bit rickety anyway.
I’m on the move: I’m getting you thinking. Where we meet is irrelevant. As long as there’s movement. As long as I can hear the sound of turning wheels, I’ll be sure you’re making an effort.
