Life is your favorite dish I read an interesting quote recently. It's about life. It motivated me to think about life as the preparation of my favorite dish. If we want to prepare a dish well, we must have a good recipe or to be skillful, and creative. Or both. It's the same in life. For life, we must also have a good recipe, and to be skillful and creative if we want to enjoy it. I will share this quote with you today, to motivate you to enjoy this Wednesday and to look forward to Thursday and Friday and the new Monday. You don’t have to live from weekend to weekend, waiting for the weekend. Sometimes it seems to me that life comes down to waiting for the weekend, and there are even 5 days until the weekend that we should also enjoy. Here is a recipe for your favorite dish. For your life. It is a dish that you must love and that must be delicious, spiced just as much as you like, refreshing, and energetically strong. *"Take 12 months. Cleanse them well from bitterness, fear, and selfishness. Carefully chop every month into 30 or 31 days. Fill each day separately with a mixture that should contain three ingredients: work, cheerful spirit, and humor. Add three spoons of optimism, one spoon of patience, a grain of irony, and a pinch of tact. Pour a lot of love over this mixture. Decorate the prepared dish with a bouquet of small attentions and serve it every day, with the obligatory cheerfulness, and with a cup of good refreshing tea.* *Note: Do not keep the recipe just for yourself, share it with others!"* *Miroslav Mika Antić* Life really needs to be tasty, to meet your needs. We don’t eat just because we are hungry. We eat to enjoy the flavors. At least that is the case with me. Life is beautiful on Wednesday and every other day. We don't have to wait for the weekend to live because the weekend is usually too short for everything we want to experience. We live here and now, and we can't be sure for tomorrow. Enjoy life every day. Eat your favorite dish slowly. And always have a good recipe or imagination. Thank you very much for reading. The article is original and mine.

Wow, that's a good read for a good recipe of our life. :)
I'm glad you like it. Life is truly our favorite dish that must be delicious.
We notice the most in life is its hardships or being unfair in an individual of us, that is why we couldn't enjoy it according to this recipe of life. But every Hardships and unfair, we still be thankful To our Almighty God.
Injustices are unfortunately an integral part of life. We have to live with them, but not let them stop us from applying this recipe.
If anyone got this recipe no doubt, everyone will got the life they wanted
I also think so. The recipe is excellent. 😊
What a line! We don’t eat to satisfy our hunger, we eat to taste the flavour! Wow dear! I'm impressed.
Haha that's my thought because I'm a foodie, and the recipe is a quote from a Serbian poet. Life really should be delicious and we should enjoy it every day.
I love your words Jelena. The line hits me. 🥰 Thank you for this lovely reminders. Yes we should live life to the fullest. Enjoy the life everyday. We shouldn't waste our time for a nonsense things.

Yes Jelena even me. We're not perfect. All of us experience that.
Me too. 😊 But not everything can be perfect, that is true.
Yes Jelena then after we regrets what we did then we learned from it.
No matter what our life is giving we need to accept it cheerfully and cherish it. We need to make each and everyday best with the help of ours positivity, love and care.
Yes. And even when some difficult situations hit us, we must continue to move forward with a positive attitude, because life passes quickly.
True, we should not stuck in our past. Our life is a blend of ebbs and flows so we must need to accept the ebbs just like we are willing to accept flows.
That's a cool way to present life as a dish. Mine would be an exotic dish. Simply delicious and breathtaking. ☺️
