* a secret to life

 one of the secrets to life is to feel hungry, and to consciously delay the gratification... 
with the confidence of being gratified, at some point, soon.

the follow-up is, when the gratification comes, 
to savor the process and to refrain from over-indulgence... 
with the confidence that the feeling of hunger (and future wellness), 
will be even easier to attain.
