When I make a plan to do something, many times I end up doing the opposite. I heard someone say once "You know how you can make God laugh?"......tell Him your plans. God must have had a blast, for all the plans I made, and which I failed to follow through.
For me it became easy to stick to vegetarian food, because I have had many experiences that animals interacted with me, with huge understanding and empathy; more than most humans even. That made me realize that animals indeed have a soul, and are very sensitive. They show love and affection. The more I became aware of this, the more I really did not want to eat animals anymore.
Once my neighbor, who broke her back, asked me to do some shopping for her. I said yes, but then she asked me to bring her chicken. That felt bad. But then I thought "she broke her back, so I will do it, and if God does not approve, he should give a good sign". I walked to the shop (8 km back and forth), and I walked past a meadow with lots of sheep and lambs. They all ran towards me, and they allowed me touching them. Then I continued to the shop, bought the chicken and returned. When I came close to the meadow, the sheep started running away, as far as they could. Never again will I go to a shop to buy animal food; wonderful experience.
A few month afterwards there was a Christian healer, and I told my neighbor "Go there, Jesus will heal you". She did not believe, but I continued bugging her with it, until she went. She got cured. So, she need not ask me again to buy her food
