"Tasting" Every Moment
Last night, I enjoyed a delicious chicken rice dinner at the Chick Fun restaurant in Taman Melaka Raya. On the surface, it seemed that I had enjoyed a dinner with a cozy, luxurious ambience.
If someone were to order from the menu, he or she would be pleasantly surprised to discover that the foods were reasonably priced, with a standard plate of chicken rice (roasted or steamed) at only RM9.90! Nowhere could someone find such a price for a "luxury" food whether in Melaka or Kuala Lumpur these days.
I ordered a bigger portion of roasted chicken rice this time around (about RM20.90). It was a hearty ala carte meal, complete with soup and rice.
However, what attracted me isn't the meal itself. As I savored every bite, a thought came to me - that life should be enjoyed slowly, deliberately, with no rush or hurry.
The "destination" is in the journey itself. It is about fully enjoying (or "tasting") every moment to get where we want to be that matter, regardless of the outcome(s).
