Our Relationship with Food

Dear Me,

People are culturally, socially, and emotionally involved with food, and there is nothing wrong with that. Of course, we would form an emotional connection with something we engage with multiple times every day, that is so closely associated with social bonding, and that is so physiologically important for life.

Devotion

Dear Me,

Devotion and determination to our pursuits builds momentum. And as our momentum builds, fewer obstacles stand in our way and slow us down. Naturally, as few obstacles slow us down, they cease to be seen as obstacles as all. The resistance to our goal is less and thus feels more sure. Essentially, nothing then stands in our way. It’s not that obstacles aren’t there. It’s that our momentum reduces them to something less than they are. But even this is relative. For our momentum has actually raised us to something more.
