What if, as soon as your tummy's full, you remember to bless it and you are thankful at that time? I think that would set up a cycle where, as long as you bless it at SOME point, the blessing and gratitude will do it's work. Isn't time an illusion anyway? :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36048078.post-21003778318669050142007-07-16T19:20:00.000-05:002007-07-16T19:20:00.000-05:00I hear you Cindy...It's like I'm thinking about it...I hear you Cindy...<BR/><BR/>It's like I'm thinking about it and thinking about it, and then I get my food out, and all of a sudden a giant mouth comes screaming out of my face and gobbles down the food... before I know it, it's gone, and I haven't even started to say thank you... much less meditatied on where it came from, and the sacrifices that were necessary for it to be...<BR/><BR/>If you come up with something that works, let me know, OK?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36048078.post-65857697302065320422007-07-16T18:46:00.000-05:002007-07-16T18:46:00.000-05:00I keep telling myself I am going to bless my food ...I keep telling myself I am going to bless my food and be grateful for it before I eat anything, but then I turn right around and forget.

I unfortunately am not doing a very good job of paraphrasing this but it was very moving and did get me to thinking seriously about the amount of food that we, especially Americans, feel we MUST take into our bodies everyday.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
