It's a pleasure to think about what's in the fridge at the moment. I can think about what ingredients to buy next, what kind of menu can be made, and what kind of taste I want to get. It is fun to morph the raw materials. And, it is inspiring creativity. I swear. I will prove right away.
The energy changes, all the subsequent actions change, and eating mass-produced food can breed similar people, which then results in people who think in a similar manner. That is kind of horror. It is also a frightening condition if the food industry only aims for profit and is not concerned about quality, reliability, and service. That's a simple rule: if you can sell something cheaper at a higher price, you can cream off the profits. That doesn't seem like a virtue to me.
There are environmental factors that affect people's feelings and perspectives, so it is better to start with positive causes. If making something wonderful requires ingredients rather than effort, then starting with worthy causes makes more sense. Carrot dissolved in soup is eaten by humans, and β-carotene, which is a typical nutrient, changes to vitamin A when taken into the body and works to keep eyes and skin healthy.
It is always changing in this world, but nothing remains the same permanently. As Plato liked to put it. ''Everything is becoming, nothing is''. All things are impermanent (transitory/evanescent). A very Japanese concept is that nothing is permanent. This is mutable. There is a certain sensual creativity associated with this.
In time and space, there is a certain realm which is accessible to our human sensory apparatus can apprehend. The other world is not accessible to our senses, it is out of time, out of space, out of body. We can see only glimpses, like the moon changing phase invariably, but it remains a timeless and unchanging truth. There is a place that is stable and unshakeable, as stable as the moon, where rabbits might live, where one might eat carrots. It is there, it exists, it is what constitutes underlying reality with the mind and is intelligible to the intellect, as once all were then "philosophy."
