Share your food

The ability to share food comes slowly as you grow. 

As a kid you always want your food and you share it with noone. No matter what. (Not to mention that you want to take the food of everyone else too)

As a teenager and young adult you still dont possess the skill. Sometimes you want to share some food when you have visitors but as you are not prepared for hospitality, your place has nothing to offer to your friends. Some other times you want to eat and you possess some fruit or candy or something else you really could share with others but the greedy kid inside you (that didnt grow up yet) tells you that its better to postpone it and enjoy it alone later (personally it has happened to me many times).

The years pass and you admire more and more elder people (especially the simple ones) for their hospitality, hoping one day you will be like this. And slowly you prepare yourself for unexpected guests and you fill your fridge and shelves with food and coffee/teas that you could offer them. And then you start invite people over and you cook for them and you re happy. 

And then the next level comes and on a travel like mine for example. You are usually the guest and not the host but the ability of sharing food must remain. I can only share my fruits and a cup of tea lately. So ido it whenever i can with people i dont know and life fills with smiles and love.

So the conclusion to all the above is : 

Share your food even if you dont have a lot. The love you ll receive, will satisfy your hunger.
