>>1953405Slowing down to eat is a foolishness, it does nothing but prolong the moment for no purpose when enjoying things for being transient as they are gives you both, greater enjoyment and makes you value them more!
Trying to prolong things that are transient never leads to good thing, be it something as small as food or something as grand as an empire for it all shall end sooner or later and seeing it die later merely means it turns into swamp of regrets and sunken costs!
By realizing that everything is temporary you can easily overcome any future grief, greatest of bodily agonies won't make you flinch once they are over, the grief of closest of people dying(while allowing you to love even the seconds you spend with them before their death!) or the biggest fears of future, none of them will matter once you realize it!
Once you realize this you will be a step closer to enlightenment for you will be free of all worries, so always eat quickly!
