Delicious or Sufficient

The day before, I went to Kajang with my friends to release the stress and tension we had after 6 days of classes. We went into the mall there, and just wildly entered some of the clothing shops and the bookshops. One of my friends wanted to buy books for his sister using the bouncer the government had given and the other friend wanted to buy a new bag. I’m just followed where they went because my main reason going out was is to eat the Domino’s pizza.

After the walk in the mall, we went straight to the Domino’s Pizza. It had been is a long time since after I had thought of and wished to eat pizzas. We ordered the special promotion had there, 3 regular size pizzas with the price of RM60 after RM30 discount. Sure it was a lot of pizzas there, but and we enjoyed eating it. After eating we took the bus and went straight went back to our college.

On the bus, my tongue still longed for pizza thus bringing the feeling of hunger in my stomach. Then I asked myself, why did I still want it when I had already eaten it a lot? Then I realized, it must be because of the deliciousness of the pizzas that I wanted to eat it again. But another question came, why did I want to eat the delicious food but still feel hungry when ordinary food also can make the hunger gone?

Actually, we wanted to eat delicious food not to fill our empty stomachs, but we want to fulfill the lust of eating something good. We humans always want something good for ourselves. The better it is the happier we become. But, is it the quality only that becomes the main point? How about the quantity? Isn’t it already enough to eat what the stomach wants? Just some ordinary food that is sufficient with the nutrients and easily digested by the system.

It is actually sufficient just to eat ordinary that can fill up our stomachs. It doesn’t matter whether it is too delicious or of ordinary taste. If it can fill up your stomach then it is okay. When eating delicious food we sometimes want to eat it more and more. When you finish eating it, the mind keeps playing, “Why did I stop eating, I want to eat more,” “Argh, it is not enough, I want to eat again”. My lecturer said, we want something branded and good because of our ego, when we get it, we want more and more, there is no stop to our ego and lust.

So, why don’t just buy something ordinary and cheap but sufficient for our daily needs, if you ever want something good and branded, try to control it and not it to buy every day, once a week is enough. Remember the peoples on the other side of the world that can’t eat branded nor good food.

Past is past, don't use present tense.
