Ban Buffet
A few hours ago, i was forcing food into my mouth. At that moment, not only i felt my stomach bulging... i felt swollen on my face, my hand.. my whole body!! My parents keep saying:" Can, you can one... go ahead.. don't waste." I guess this is the spirit of singaporean on buffet. My sis, who prefer to eat large variety and small portion... in the end, we have to finish the rest. Seriously, i was disgusted by the dishes at that moment though they were really good food - "buddha jump over wall", roasted goose, all kinds of seafood etc.
Yea... my family had an early reunion dinner at Pearl River Palace at suntec for new year as well as to celebrate my mum's birthday. When i heard that the style is buffet, i was quite turn off. Nowdays i really feel like going into diet. Yea.. i know.. die without the "t"! Thank Jesus for the cross!! I just felt that my body is getting oversized.. due to the lack of exercise and constant supply of good food. Last time, when i had a constant exercise regime, i use to "care less" on my eating habit. But now, i am getting more conscious of it... i pray for Pastor Mark's revelation on Mark11:24 to slim down!!
Before the dinner, i tried... i did try to enjoy the food... like Pastor Prince says:" Enjoy the food SLOWLY." My usually style of eating is to gobble food down until i have the revelation to enjoy them SLOWLY. But it does not work! I think the main reason is because of the style of the dinner - buffet! I want to ban buffet!! Haha.. at least for a period of time. And i also want to comment on the singaporean attitude towards buffet - "Pay and eat as much as you can." I think this is an error! End of the day, do they really enjoy? Or just want to eat for the money worth?
I thank Abba for giving us Holy Spirit. The prompting of the Spirit is there to tell us that we are full or hungry... end result - a satisfied stomach!!
