Add a dash of love and smiles :) :D to your cooking – It’s truly sublime and special

It has been said that cooking is divine and the feeling is truly very special. This is more so if you love your cooking and want to give your family the best.  I do not know about others, but the days when we are not so in a good mood or are feeling low, the food does not turn out to be how it actually needs to be. What could be the reason for this? I tried figuring it out, and the reason for the same and there it was! I had forgotten to add the most significant and priceless ingredient and that was my love and positive feelings into it.

Cooking is truly like meditation and when you cook with your heart and picturise your loved ones having it, it feels absolutely wonderful and blissful.   Rather than considering it as a normal routine activity, like many women, my feminine traits feels it most wonderful to cook as I feel absolutely at peace.  Just like cooking, the manner in which the food is served to our family and friends also is a beautiful activity.  The more I think of it, the feeling is sublime.

The entire process involved in cooking is meditative, rhythmic and of course divine.  Many of us would be able to relate to this completely.  Be it a homemaker or a working lady, cooking your family’s favorite dishes and seeing them eat in peace and joyfully is truly a joy in itself. Though compliments are always welcome and my family is lavish in giving away compliments, I still wait to see the change in the expressions when my hubby and daughter eat their meal.  Many a times, it would feel like a kid standing in front of a teacher waiting for the marksheet. 

Nevertheless I would mention that cook with your hearts and even though you may feel down at times, try to erase thoughts or any negativity. At times, you can be selfish and simply think that you are also going to eat the same food that has ingredients like negative emotions, anger, jealousy etc.  Is it worth eating that food and spoiling your health? This is truly food for thought.  So think about it friends.   Cook happily and try smiling when you do so. It might appear very funny in the beginning, but do it tomorrow and if you are not able to smile, THINK OF ME because I have just posted it today. 


P.S:
Tomorrow let’s wear the best of our ORANGE coloured clothes and enjoy the festival in the true sense.  Orange signifies joy, prosperity and success and wish you everyone lots of success and abundance UNLIMITED.
