No Breakfast Today

20250926 #breakfastdiary 1519, 20°C/cloudy 'As long as nothing comes up, I make a different breakfast every day.' That sentence starts with a qualifier - 'as long as nothing comes up.' Something coming up means being too sick to cook, or being away from the kitchen for a business trip or travel. On a smaller scale, there's also the once-a-year health checkup day, when fasting means skipping breakfast. (Breakfast-Me: Lonely or Sad, I Still Eat) Today's breakfast is taking the day off for a health checkup. - We scold indecisive people for being 'like water diluted with water, like liquor diluted with liquor.' Every time I hear that phrase, I sense a positive nuance hiding behind its negative meaning. I actually think well of people who seem 'diluted' like that (I even envy them a little). Others might see them as lacking edges, too soft, or wishy-washy, but they're simply holding on to their true nature as it is. (Kim Jin-hae, 'Like Water Diluted with Water')
