Sometimes.
I've been having a string of events where I regularly trade typically my only meal of the day (aka. dinner) with good catching up or even intellectual topics. The most recent one is a 4.5 hour conversation over coffee and some little tidbits with 3 other people and I traded dinner for that. It's a good trade.
Like I've said last time, I would give up food for good conversations anytime (but obviously not all the time). Food you can always find yourself. Worst case scenario is you just cook albeit at 1 or 2 am but good heartfelt and thought provoking talk is harder to come by especially given the current circumstances.
But sometimes you will have the "Holy Grail" of conversations where you have those and food. Few things can beat that combination. Today I had the privilege of meeting up with Janice and we have a good time catching up + food + coffee and as a special mystery guest present for Tim's graduation. The sister, who is also a schoolmate of mine as well, was also pleasantly surprised by her arrival. Oddly enough, although they both stay in Singapore, they hardly meet each other. So this is the first time in a very long while that they met, on foreign soil. How ironic.
Oh how I can have a day like today everyday. Makes me feel complete. Whatever that means.
