What wisdom can you find that is greater than kindness?
Marieka, this 4th grader is my kindness idol .
She is a beautiful person, inside and out !
The second from left is Marieka and the fourth left is Maanasi Vivek, the author of this article.
Marieka's classmate told me that she is vegetarian and when I found out why and how , I was speechless .
She was four years old and in preschool . A chicken sat on her lap and later that day at home when she was served chicken for dinner , she refused .
Her heart had connected this chicken to that chicken .
Marieka decided to become vegetarian.
I applaud her parents for letting Marieka follow her heart ????
I found the time to talk to the mom and the mom accepted the appreciation oh so humbly .
I told her that her daughter inspires me in more than one way and is an inspiration to me.
In my case , I was raised vegetarian.
And when I reflected about how the milk is inhumanely taken away from the mother cow and how the newborn is cruelly separated from the mother , so humans can have the milk , that made me go vegan . I was already an adult when I
consciously decided to walk that route .
But Marieka loved and valued a chicken 's life at the age of four . She was not taught or convinced to do that .
Innate empathy ✨
