reminds me of Ecclesiastes... wasn’t that the book that talked about diving into all the different things in life: studies, food, drink, music, etc and realizing that all that really matters in the end is your faith in God?

Actually some of it was “Enjoy it now because you are going to die one day”. The point was not to cling to it. You have no treasures here. None. Your kids will toss their baby pictures in the trash when you are gone.

It also reminds us to enjoy the goodness through food and drink that God provides for us.
Ecclesiastes 2:24 There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God.
