Siempre he sido de las que le gusta comer, en lugar de hacer la comida.
He tenigo mis lapsos en los que cocino, y por lo general hago postres. Pero esos lapsos solían venir cuando me sentía triste por algo. Había algo en el hecho de cocinar que me ponía de mejor humor.
Lo que no me gustaba de eso era lo que me motiva a cocinar. Pues si cocinaba cuando estaba mal, con razón tengo libras de más! A parte que cuando uno cocina triste, la comida no queda tan sabrosa.
Pero ahora, me llamó la atención como mi prima Kaya, mi mami y mi hermana han notado que he estado cocinando más, y realmente la comida me queda muy rica, modestia aparte, claro. Y tengo que confesar, que ahora lo hago porque quiero, porque quiero aprendo, porque es algo más a conquistar. Ya no por un sentimiento malo que me lleva a ella como un escape.
El punto es de esto acá es: Cuando hagas algo, hazlo por las razones correctas. No te dejés ir por un sentimiento pasajero que te puede llevar hacia un lugar no muy feliz y malo. En mi caso, con la comida, en vista de que lo único que ánima cuando estás triste son las cosas que engordan, me llevo a un par de libras extras que sigo sin agradecer.
Cuando hagas algo, hazlo bien. Como para Dios y no para los hombres. Tratar de agradar a los hombres nunca trajo nada bueno. Es casi imposible por naturaleza. Hazlo para ti. Hazlo para Dios. Hazlo de corazón.
Mientras, yo seguiré cocinando de esa forma que esta encantando. Y tú, acompañame a hacer las cosas por las razones correctas! XO!
I have always been the one that loves to eat, instead of making the things to eat.
I have had my moments of cooking and generally I go for desserts. But those moments used to come when I was feeling sad for something. There was something in the act of cooking that got me in better mood.
What I didn't like was that sadness used to be what drove me to cooking. Because if I cooked when I was blue, no wonder why I have a few extra pounds! Besides, food doesn't taste great when you are sad.
But today I was surprised to see how my cousin Kaya, my mom and my sissy, al have notices how much more I'm cooking and how good the food is coming out, humbly speaking. And I must confess that now I'm doing it because I want to do it, I want to learn more, because is another thing to conquer. Not doing because is something that leads me to an scape.
Bottom line here is: When you do something, do it for the right reasons. Don't go for it based on a passing feeling that can lead you to a not very happy place. In my case, food was what cheered me up given that junk food makes funny things to your mood, and that led me to a few pounds that I'm still not grateful for.
When you do something, do it well. For God, and not for men. Trying to please mankind never brought anything good. Is almost impossible by nature. Do it for you. Do it for God. Do it from the bottom of your heart.
In the meantime I'll continue to cook in this amazing way that I'm loving. And you, join me to keep doing thing for the right reasons! XO!
