So, Fridays are my days to go food shopping - most weeks its groceries and some weeks it's chocolate.
I take immense pleasure in buying chocolate - I love to stand in the aisle and look at everything that's there. As I walk to the store, I plan what I want to buy.
Today, as I went through my routine, I realized I take more pleasure in buying the chocolate than I ever do eating it. In fact, in the past couple months since I started eating mindfully, chocolate (and ice cream) have been piling up in my apartment (I can prevent myself from eating anything when I'm mindful/willing).
I just absolutely love the process of buying it and cherish the knowledge that it's there. I will buy the candy and days will go by without it being touched but the fact that its been bought gives me unbelievable satisfaction and happiness.
That's it - no question or helpful tip here...Just wanted to share a weird revelation...
