Around two months ago I made a couple videos regarding why I am currently not vegan and after posting these videos to my Facebook I had quite an interesting conversation with a woman who is vegan. Although she raised some interesting points I want to focus on the facts that I point out.

In my opinion we were never engaging in a 'conversation'. This was an 'interaction'. This was two minds interacting with each other, not of human beings communicating.

Some of the best parts of my life are in heated, logical debate with other human beings. Exchanging ideas and information while being totally encapsulated in the topic at hand. There is a sort of energy that can be felt and sometimes even seen, but this is not what happened.

I chose to remove names because this is not meant in anyway to be malicious or disrespectful to the person involved. I want to display and be able to refer back upon this blog post to discuss how I believe many people, in this modern society jacked up on information, don't really have informative, engaging conversations. We are no longer conversing, we are just exchanging interactions with each other.

What is the purpose of 'conversing' with each other if not for the purpose of growing upon our own skill or knowledge base? If we are going to divulge precious moments of our life to another human being, even for just several moments, we should be giving our everything to those moments, our whole being, right there, in the now.

As you can see from this 'interaction', by not partaking in the information I displayed in the video, not just once, but twice she chose to display her 'ideology' and 'beliefs' in life. Just spewing out mental diarrhea and facts that belong to emotionally held habits and lifestyle choices without engaging the topic at hand. Why else are we 'conversing'?

I don't give a fuck what you, as a human being, 'believe'. I don't care what you do in your life unless you can prove it. If you can prove it works, I'm interested. If you have documented evidence then you've caught my attention. But just displaying information in your head and typing it out for another human being to read does not mean that a 'conversation' has occurred. You are just displaying your opinions, as I am doing with this blog post. AND if you have the time and effort to be displaying your opinions then it should be in a constructive way, to engage in conversation with another human being. I posted a video and instead of responding to the information I provided she chose to just spew out information that didn't concern the points I brought attention to so I chose not to engage.

This is a big reason I created The Hungarian Experiment, documenting and displaying different factors from my life. If I didn't document my journey with Intermittent Fasting, and show the times and windows I eat in then how could you really know I did it. If I didn't document my year long transformation and change with stomach vacuums over 2015 and someone saw me do them now, they could easily make assumptions but now, if they are interested they can watch the whole journey.

This life is so situational that our unique life factors/situations and the things we are passionate the most about are the things that define us the most and I believe it is important to document these factors.

Exchanging ideas and information is the key to the development of the 'New Renaissance'. Do you 'interact' or do you 'converse'?
