The Overthinking Addict

Soul Food.

Now are you so hungry or soul hungry?
And why is it that we constantly view ourselves as a body and not a soul?

Excuse the random questions but I'm talking about Soul Food.

Why is it that we solely focus on the vessel and not what it contains?
We don't buy food just for the box it comes in,
So why do we treat our physical beings differently?
No one wants disgusting food in a beautiful container.
And yes, good presentation heightens the need for it,
It enlarges your appetite but at the end of the day,
If its chicken you bought, its chicken you're going to get.
The bland, boring dish can just be the best you've ever had.
The pretty colours, the garnishes, the fancy touches aren't what satisfies your hunger,
So why do you think it's going to be enough to feed your starving soul?

Yes we see the exterior at  first but that's not supposed to affect your appetite. You were craving one specific meal, don't let the appearance; colour or shape of someone else's box of food distract you from getting what you wanted in the first place.
Some of us are lucky enough to wait and get tasty food presented in the loveliest way..
Then there are some of us who are hungry and not quite sure about what we want to eat.
But just remember, we all have allergies.
Not everything we put into our system actually agrees with us. The same way not everyone you have a physical attachment to, satisfies your soul.
They leave you upset, nauseated and constantly vomiting.
And like food poisoning, they are toxic to your soul. So be careful with what you eat.
