I personally prefer non-vegetarian food over vegetarian food. I think its cause at home, there was always some non vegetarian food made.

I have seen enough videos online to know that this is a polarizing issue. I have no intention to add fuel to that fire.

But taking a step back truthfully I am grateful for any meal that is on my table. I am believe to each his own. Everyone is different and grew up in different circumstances. As long as you don’t take for advantage the privilege of choice – “to eat what you prefer” it does not matter what you eat. Further, someone being different from you does not give you the right to impose your opinion on them.

Taking another step back, Vegetarian or Non Vegetarian it does not matter. The only thing that can evoke feelings about food is an associated memory. I don’t remember every dish I eat, neither do I remember the most costly food I have eaten.

I mostly remember the food I ate sneakily in the back of the classroom. It’s the food that my sister made for the first time. There is also the burnt food we salvaged after mom forgot the stove was on during family conversations. These are the foods I love. These are the food that evokes feelings in me.

Have you ever broken a bone?

By the grace of God, I survived!

Given how accident prone I am it is really a miracle. I sat this line to define my situation “I can trip on level ground”.

It started with a cracked ankle at 13. Post that I have cracked my other ankle, an elbow, a wrist, dislocated both my shoulders, crack on the head and multiple ligament and tendon injuries.

But you know what is the biggest shocker to this? I am not an athlete. I have had small injuries playing basketball and football but all broken bones were out of the field.

Its not that I am careless. I am very scared of getting hurt so I am careful. Despite this, I keep getting injured. Now I have given up on fighting my situation. I deal with the injury rather than being fearful of getting injured.

The enjoyed the extra attention I got when I was in a cast but taking a bath with the cast on was super annoying. The worst is when it starts itching in the cast. But when the cast comes of its literally like a weight has lifted off me.

I think at one point of time my doctor saw my name and came into the emergency room asking, “What did you break this time?”
