Hipsters in the desert

I meet a hipster yesterday on the streets of a small town in southern Utah, he was working on an organic farm for the summer. We spoke for a while and I shared my bread and offered my salmon and Bree. Impressed, I learned he’d been a vegan for the last 14 years since he was 13 and his family moved to Alaska. His reasoning was simple and he had the drive to follow ideals and stay true. So when the topic shifted to the problems he had with drugs, alcohol, and women. I was surprised, I still am a bit he had a lot of strength in will and has given all up but women, but how someone with a strong self drive and will falls to such great depths… I suppose it goes to show the potential for people to claw their way back up
