You are what you eat

You know they say, you are what you eat. I totally agree with this saying. The phrase finder says its meaning is "To be fit and healthy, you need to eat good food". But I guess it's more powerful than that.

I personally assume that the "food" here is more about things we put into ourselves, such as what we see, what we think, or what we feel. Just everything we put into ourselves.


So, if this world was a restaurant, everything you can see, think, and feel in this world would be the foods. And the main role here is you! Because you would be the customer in the restaurant who choose the foods you want to eat.

Whatever you eat, it will always affect your body (your life).

That's why it's really important to choose "what you eat", because it's what really shapes you in the end. If you want your life to be better, you should manage what you eat. You can't just consume whatever you see, because not everything you see is good for you. Some foods are good for our health, some are not. Choose them!

The "foods" here are not always from outside. It's not just about what you see, such as the circumstances, things, or people around you. Sometimes it's inside you, such as what you think and what you feel. All these three (what you see, what you think, and what you feel) are the things that in the end will significantly affect and shape who you will be.

The truth is, the restaurant will offer you all the foods. They will not order for you. It's you as the consumer to decide which is good for you, and which is not. When you know it's not good for you, don't eat!

Beware in choosing what you consume, because it is what really shapes who you are. "Eat" good things, and have a good life!

Remy and His Passion

This is the second post of Disney Lessons on my blog, and this time I'm gonna talk about that little mouse from Ratatouille . Yup, Remy ! For you who don't watch this movie, Ratatouille is a Disney movie about a little mouse, Remy, who's expert in cooking, and he secretly helps a chef named Linguini who can't cook at all. For some people who watch it, maybe this movie is funny because it's about a mouse that helps a chef to cook just by hiding in the chef's hat and controlling what he does with his hair. But this movie becomes very inspirational when you see it from this mouse's perspective. His name is Remy. His passion is in cooking. The most inspiring thing about Remy is, nobody supports him to cook. Everybody disagrees with him, even his father really hates him for doing that. But, it's about passion. His heart is in cooking. But then, back to the fact again: he's a mouse! How to be a chef when you're a mouse? By the way, I like how ...

Life's a climb, just don't get exhausted

If you don't know that Miley Cyrus' song, it's called The Climb . Well, they say life is all about the climb . I think this saying means that you just can't do nothing at where you're standing now if you want to go to a better place in your life. If you want to reach the peak, you must climb. If you don't climb, you'll just be at the same place forever. Everyone has different mountain. Everyone has different peak they want to reach. The same thing is, everyone starts from the bottom. So, everyone must climb. Some people climb for money. Some people climb for career. Some people climb for people they love. Some people climb for happiness. Whatever it is, they climb for something they want to reach that they still don't have now. It's funny how people compete each other to climb their best peaks. Some people want to reach there the fastest. Some people just want to reach the highest peak, no matter how long it takes. The climb is goo...
