change

I've changed. I'm starting to believe in karma and reincarnation with practically zero "scientific" evidence backing up the belief. It just feels right. Is it called faith? I'm starting to consider becoming a, part-time, vegetarian, because the idea of meat-eating is becoming increasingly grotesque and intolerable to me. I feel guilty whenever I eat meat; I feel particularly sick when I eat chicken and pork, remembering what Foer said in Eating Animals. I'm beginning to feel that China really has no right to claim Tibet as its own; and even if we accept that no matter what the situation was in the past, now Tibet is an indivisible part of China, China should not be promoting the kind of censoring and condescending attitude. Driving away the Dalai Lama and tens of thousands of Tibetans is both a significant economic loss and cultural loss.

If I look at myself today as myself in the past, I would think that the myself today is severely brainwashed by Western ideals. But things change when one is exposed to more, good or bad does not matter.
