The philosophical implications of food

Eating is no small matter and must be taken seriously.

The endless family affection, fragile friendship, and inexplicable work relationship all have an inexplicable relationship with eating.

The methodology of eating is an integral part of philosophy.

Gibran said through the mouth of a saint in "The Prophet", when you chew an apple with your teeth, you should say to it in your heart:

Your seed will live in my body,

your buds of tomorrow will open in my heart,

you The fragrance of my breath melts into my breath, and

you and I will spend every season with joy.

It teaches us to start from the details, to love everything in life, to repent of our mistakes, and to say sorry to those around us.
