Be Thankful For What You Eat

Food is something that we all must have to survive.  It is not a luxury or a privilege.  So, don't ever take your next meal for granted.  

Be thankful that you have the means to pay someone to cook you a hot meal.  By doing so, you give them a purpose & the support to make their own living.  It's much more than a simple transaction- it provides sustenance for one & provides a livelihood for the other. 

Be sure to show them the respect that they deserve.  A simple, "Thank You," can mean so much.  Afterall, they are saving you the time & energy that it would take you to accomplish the task.    

Be grateful that you live in a place where food establishments are readily available (literally at your fingertips).  Remember, some folks in this world aren't nearly as fortunate & spend a large part of their day trying to figure out where their next meal will come from.
