So true about what you wrote on feeling gratitude. One of the effects of being hungry is feeling alive. You begin to exist because the drive needs you to get off and eat.
One thing about being hungry is how unpleasant it is. And then how unpleasant something unpleasant is. Then the desire to shake off the unpleasantness. If you stay still, it becomes almost interesting to watch. One fathom long body, the master of the universe, can barely hold 4 hours of food supply.
Humans can survive on a meal a day. Just like most animals. My dog puts on weight on a meal a day. But somehow we have conditioned ourselves, through surrounding ourselves with food beyond what we need.
