Unfettered Living 21

21
Why can't we accomplish an act such as eating without someone else and in peace? When we are eating, that is exactly what we wish to do. What we are eating is definitely not a trivial matter. We value good-tasting nutrition, it should be easily digestible and promote health. We, or someone else, spend a lot of time preparing and cooking. And what happens? While we are bombarded by images and sounds, we carelessly gulp down that which should bring us pleasure. As though it holds no significance for us and is only a burdensome duty. It is not a duty, it is life.
