Patsikuli, chaka chapitacho, ndinasiya kudya nyama. Kunena mwachidule: palibe ng'ombe, nkhumba, nkhuku kapena chilichonse chomwe chili nawo. Sindinakondepo nsomba zam'madzi, kotero panalibe funso loti ndisiye. Lero ndi tsiku langa lokumbukira zanyama!
Mabaluni amlengalenga! Njoka! Ndiyenera kuuza dziko kuti ndimadya saladi (ndi pizza) ndi mphodza (ndi ayisikilimu)!
Polemekeza chikumbutso, tinayesa malo odyera atsopano madzulo. Chabwino, chinali chowiringula chabe kuti ndituluke, koma ine mwanjira ina ndidatha kupulumuka ndi tsabola wamasamba. Pambuyo pake, ndidakwanitsanso kuchita ma push-ups 20. Kuseka. Ndinakwera galimoto yotentha ndikubwerera kunyumba.
Ndadya zakudya zamagulu ambiri kwa zaka zambiri (monga tofu kapena veggie burgers), koma ndakhala ndikudya nyama pamodzi nawo. Ndipo chaka chapitacho ndinasiya kwathunthu. Poyamba, Fran ananditcha munthu wosadya zamasamba. “Ayi, sindimadya nyama basi. Ndidzitcha wosadya masamba ngati ndikhala chaka chimodzi.
Nthawi zambiri sindimakonda kuuza anthu kuti ndine wosadya masamba. Ndamva nthabwala zamtundu uliwonse. Kodi mungadziwe bwanji munthu wamasamba? Osadandaula, akuuzani.” (Ngati mumaganiza zoyika nthabwala iyi m'makomenti, ndakumenyani. Mwadya?)
Ndimafunsidwa mafunso ambiri. "Kodi mukufuna nyama? Kodi mumatopa nthawi zonse? Mumapeza kuti zomanga thupi? Kodi mumalola ana kudya nyama?” (Zala zili zokonzeka kuyimba nambala ya utsogoleri wosamalira ana) Inde, amadya nyama. Lilia anayesa kugwira nkhwawa m'chilimwe ndipo amati ndi chakudya chamadzulo kwa ife, kotero kuti panopa iye ndi wodya nyama.
Nthawi zina ndimamva kuti, "Ndilibe chilichonse chotsutsana ndi odya zamasamba bola ngati asayambe khalidwe lawo." Inde, ndikumvetsa kuti palibe amene amakonda kuphunzitsidwa, koma tiyeni tivomereze: nthawi zina ngakhale mawu osavuta akuti "sindidya nyama" amakhumudwitsa anthu. Sindimandiwawa kuti sumakonda ma burgers a nyemba ndiye misala ngati ukudziwa kuti sindidya nthiti. Tikhale mwamtendere! Ndikhoza kugawana zofufumitsa zachifaransa.
