The Importance Of Activism
Everyone has that special someone in their life that stood out like a sore thumb. It can either be your mom, dad, best friend, or even a partner. For me, it would be my best friend Andreu. Andreu is very special to me because he and I support activism together, we are both vegan, and he is by my side 100% of the time.
First off, without activism, we wouldn’t have met.
We met in a vegan community which is a form of activism. We met after a heated conversation within a group. He contacted me because within the conversation, he found out that he and I had similar aspects. When we got to know each other we found out we both condone activism such as Veganism, Feminism, LGBTQ, Body Shaming, and Abilism. One day, we will make our community to support …show more content…
Everyday we send pictures to each other of what we eat and conversate about them. At times, we even make our favorite food. Its pretty funny to think about it because when either of us make it, it’s like a best friend’s version. Culture is another thing when it comes to veganism. He is from Spain so he shows me a vegan version of his traditional foods found in Spain such as potaje, burritos, and croquettes. I on the other hand show him traditional recipes I learned such as fried rice, jalapeno poppers, and curry. It’s amazing how we veganize our traditional foods.
The last reason why Andreu and I are so close is because he is the most loyal person I have ever met. There have been times where I’ve been really sad and he would take the time out to stay up at night just to talk to me. Others I met just gave me a short statement and went to sleep (which I don’t have a problem with). If that isn’t a friend, I don’t know what it is. You do not find many people like that very often and if you do, you better treasure them.
To conclude this, I am very glad to meet a person like him. It finally made me realise new people do appear in your life. When you travel a lot, it is very hard to have a long lasting friend because it is hard to keep in touch with
