I can't keep up this charade. Since mid-May, I have been trying to be a vegetarian, and sometimes succeeding. For weeks on end, I would not eat meat. But then I would. That's no problem, necessarily; the crime lies in continually professing to have converted to vegetarianism while admitting to periodic lapses. As my "lapses" have grown more frequent, I feel more and more the liar whenever I say (outloud or inwardly) that I am a vegetarian. Even "I am trying to be one" seems disingenuous these days. And you know how I feel about disingenuousness. So no more! I am no longer "trying to be vegetarian." Now I am "not eating meat for every single meal." (After all, why should I treat meat any better than vegetable?!)
Yours,
