Okay this is actually a perfect eastern vs western philosophy debate hidden in a taco.

I am going to make some very broad strokes here. So no armchair quarterbacking me. I know it's way more nuanced but I'm not writing an essay on Lemmy.

In general Western philosophies always have a "goal." Your human life is to prove your worthiness. You need to look back and atone for your past mistakes. You need to look forward so you can do the right things to be worthy. It is very little about being in the now.

Eastern philosophies are much more about being aware of the moment. The past has happened it cannot be changed you should not worry about it. The future doesn't exist so there's no need to focus on it. The only thing you can affect is the very moment in time you're in and the only way to affect it is through your actions.

In this case tacos are the moment. So next time you're eating a delicious taco. Spend that moment to be one with your taco. Concentrate on the smell. Then feel the texture as you pick it up. How the various colors interact with each other. Then as you bite off some, feel the textures in your mouth and how the flavors interact. Watch yourself, be aware of every time you chew. Remember there is no past there's no future there is only tacos.

Western philosophy

if god is omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent then what is the point in anything

People may argue against this, but they probably have never had a real, good taco.

I am faced with the knowledge that I have masa harina just sitting around.

I'm gonna go have a religious experience.

Edit: did, huge success

You've not understood to Existence until you've gone "oh good. foo-ood."

Foo-ooood is goo-ood. Just grab it. If you can. Tacos are better than death.

Agree 100%. (Sorry everyone who is sick of me bringing this up, but...) I am currently suffering from a condition where I can't eat solid food and I haven't for close to a year now. You have no idea how lucky you are if you can eat and enjoy food. It doesn't sound like something that would be a lucky thing, but it absolutely is. There is nothing in this world like a really good meal.
