"Take one moment each day to eat something in complete mindfulness, practicing the Fifth Mindfulness Training. It can be an entire meal, or even a single thing, such as a cookie. Savor each bite and think about what went into the food you are eating: the soil from which it came from, the laborer that harvested the ingredients, the sun and the rain — the entire universe makes your life possible. What a miracle life is!"
(from the Parallax Press reader's guide for Thich Nhat Hanh's "Mindfulness Survival Kit")
