FOOD; FOR THOUGHT
I woke to type...
In my dream I attended a programme and afterwards food was
shared, however, though the food was enough (tautology you might think), for some reasons the servers chose
not to serve it all and invariably some did not get food, but with a promise to
continue serving later.
Their promise to share later on came true as minutes later I
heard a rushing sound and it was the food sharing exercise. People scrambled
for the take-away packs even those who got earlier and as I stood there I
wondered why there was so much commotion, just
because of food.
I remember while I was an undergraduate that students did
not respect queues when it came to food.
So I was inspired to write about the essence of food. At
this point, I’d like to take you back to the title of this piece: food; for thought. Please note that I
didn’t write food for thought.
The essence of food is to have strength to carry on, not for
indulgence.
Finally a passage from the Bible summarizes it:
Woe to thee, O land, when thy
king is a child, and thy princes eat in the morning!
Blessed art thou, O land,
when thy king is the son of nobles, and thy princes eat in due season, for
strength, and not for drunkenness! Ecclesiastes 10:16-17
Find the real essence of food…DESIRE
