Blog Entry #2: The Meaning of Food in My Life

Food plays a major role in every human's life. It is the thing that humans need to strive and survive. Food also can assist in other numerous ways. Food is an important combination in the ultimate satisfaction in my life.

One reason why food has this certain meaning in my life is due to the fact that it assists me in bringing the family together. Whenever it comes to my family and food, everyone settles their differences if we were disputing and comes together as one. For example, my grandma likes to cook dinner every night. Sometimes my brothers and I would be fighting or arguing while she cooks the dinner.But when she asks one of us to help, my brothers and I rush to her side, despite our earlier arguments, and assist her with dinner. We would set the table and make jokes and have a good laugh while helping my grandma.

Another reason why food plays an important role in my life is because food gives me a sense of relief when I'm going through any type of harsh situations. To me, food is a source of happiness in a way. For example, A few months ago I went through a breakup. During the breakup, I suffered through numerous mood swings. The only thing that kept me on track was ice cream. When I ate ice cream, I felt a sense of relief from the pressure and the pain of the break up. It actually calmed me to a point that I became understanding to the situation and accepted it the way it was.

Food is everything. It provides benefits that are essential to everyone. Without food, nothing would be possible or accomplished.
