Recently I came across a Zen prayer that Thich Nhat Hanh, a Buddhist monk, recites prior to eating: “In this plate of food, I see the entire universe supporting my existence.” I like Hanh’s meditation a lot because the wording allows me to include God in my gratitude without excluding gratitude to all the unseen human beings who also had a hand in the gift of the food in front of me.
