Today during a breakfast while I was eating dim sum with my dad and grandma, I noticed that their face wasn't radiating with joy and this really bugged me. Then I started to wonder why this bugged me so much. Then came a revelation.
I asked myself, why exactly do I like food so much? Food can stimulate all of my 5 senses. I can smell the aroma of food, I can taste the scrumptious and I feel the grip on the cutlery holding the food. Most importantly, I can see the happy faces and hear the laughter. Eating food, even thought its a fleeting moment, I feel free and reality stops. I'm in a realm where only smiles and happiness resides...I'm the person I want to be, a happy and thankful person filled with warmth.
I guess that's the reason I like food. Like those people who like music, food plays a symphony dear to my heart and I think it's a wonderful blessing that we have been gifted the ability to taste by God.
So eat and be happy but remember Ricky, gluttony is a big no no.... But food is so good -.-
