Chapter 53 enjoy eating alone

Since it is inevitable for a person to eat, it is better to treat him as a kind of enjoyment. Travelers who want to exile the dining table as a single-person group traveler should first straighten their minds and count the benefits of eating alone: ​​no need to be controlled by others, no need to stick to manners, and the most rare thing: no need to speak.As we all know, talking at mealtimes is harmful to health, and living in groups all day long will inevitably lead to full food all day long, and the result is inattentiveness and meaningless words.There is an old saying: "Don't talk when you eat, don't talk when you sleep." However, it's okay not to talk when you sleep, but it's difficult not to talk when you eat!Eating with others without speaking is the same crime as murdering for money. "Book of Rites" states that "the beginning of a husband's ceremony begins with food and drink."That is to say, there are many red tapes, all of which are eaten together.Regarding table manners, the "Book of Rites" also stipulates in Article 7: "Eating together is not enough." This does not mean that eating together is not enough, but it means "eating together should not be too full".That being the case, the host kept persuading him to drink and serve vegetables, knowingly committing a crime.This kind of contradictory manifestation is of course the result of a lack of etiquette, but I am more willing to believe what Mr. Jin Kemu said before his death, part of the ancient Chinese teachings is not a virtue, but a flaw in cultural character.

Once you figure out "how to eat", "what to eat" becomes a purely technical issue.Drinking in the morning and eating in the evening with autumn chrysanthemums, although they are both natural and healthy, they can be aspirational, but they are monotonous and sparse.The absolute command of eating alone is that you can't live with it, and you must not treat yourself badly.It should be simple rather than complicated, focusing on quality rather than quantity.All kinds of quick-frozen things should be avoided if possible, why?It should be known that the person who eats alone can understand it with reason, but he can't "freeze" it with emotion. When he opens the refrigerator to fetch things, everything he sees and touches with his hands is full of gloomy clouds and fog, bitter cold, and his eyes are not yet hot. , the bottom of my heart is half cold, how can I still think about eating and drinking?Also: Noodles are suitable for eating instead of rice. Noodles should be eaten immediately, and dishes and soup are completely built-in and compatible; cooking rice is time-consuming and troublesome, and dishes and soup are completely outside and conflict; the table should be rectangular rather than circular. The case, the lines are resolute, as if entering the on-site office, it will double the will; facing the round platform, the mood is lingering, especially when you are stuck in what is always going, it makes you feel lonely.Those who are weak-willed might as well give up all the round and square tables, because if there is a table, there must be chairs, and if there are chairs, there is no end to it. The extra empty chairs are most likely to become containers of sadness.

A 30cm large plate, or a large Japanese bowl, holding one's dinner, hiding in one's sofa, imagining oneself as a cat.Both cats and dogs are close to people, but cats are better at being alone than dogs.I am used to eating alone, and all the troubles and sorrows can be regarded as nothing, I am a cat.I have some friends who are successful people who have a dog personality to varying degrees, fierce, aggressive, and indomitable.Whether you work with others or operate independently, you have made a lot of money, but you can't spend it alone, especially if you can't bear dinner alone, you have to be surrounded by a large group of people.These people may have become the main driving force for him to carry his career through to the end.

Unlike sharks, people are in a state of mental frenzy when eating alone. Eating alone is usually the weakest and most sensitive time of the day.Regarding solitude, except for the vague word "shendu", traditional culture does not provide greater wisdom.In contrast to the Western-style diet, there seems to be a whole set of effective solutions in every movement and stillness.If you go back to a more primitive age, human beings groping in the dark have not much difference in their views on solitude.Mr. Pang Pu's new interpretation of "Shendu" in Guodian Chu Bamboo Slips is at least valid on the dining table.The spiritual force that can make a person end his dinner alone in peace and harmony is the world, not the self.

Everyone in the world is sad that "everything in the world is scattered", and it is even more negative to not get together or "not as good as".This kind of situation makes eating alone a skill that must be learned. There is only one person when you get together, and there is only one person when you get together, and you are speechless when you get together.
