Healing poems that can serve as meals, hymns dedicated to food. Only when the stomach is comfortable can the heart be at peace; when the belly is full, everything will be happy. When you are running around in the steel jungle of the city every day and sit down to rest after a stressful day, eating is the most tender way of healing; when the wound of a broken love still aches and the sadness cannot be let go, eating is a more healing tool than drinking to drown your sorrows or crying late at night. Many people have a free heart, but unfortunately they are still entangled in trivial matters in the world. A lot of food can fill your stomach, but it can't satisfy your soul. Many people can't remember their pain, but what they remember is the dish they broke up with. Emotions that have no place to rest can find their deserved destination through careful tasting. If you can't find an ear to talk to, please open "Late Night Talking about Eating" and find a tender comfort for your soul here!
