Watch what you consume – Words of wisdom from the philosopher Jiddu Krishnamurti.
Life is like a buffet, but be careful what you put on your plate. We’ve made sex a main course, when it’s just a side dish. We crave it because it’s a moment of freedom in our circumscribed lives. But real creation, true freedom, comes from within, not from fleeting pleasures. So why do we keep feeding the wrong appetite? 🍔🥗
