The Rage of Rebuilding
Some days, rebuilding feels noble in theory and brutal in practice. You can understand that losing everything was necessary... and still feel the heat of rage rising through your chest like a storm looking for windows.
So I cooked for the fire.
I made myself a Chinese-style breakfast soup. Chicken drums seared until golden brown, because even pain deserves color. Fresh sliced ginger dropped into the pot, a root long honored for warming the body, moving stuck energy, and helping transform sharp emotion into motion. Ginger doesn’t erase rage. It helps it move instead of harden.
Green scallions for clarity and lift. Water with a whisper of MSG, because healing sometimes arrives through simple pleasure. Bok choy sliced and simmered until tender, bringing softness to what felt rigid. Served over rice, the oldest comfort language.
And somewhere between the steam and the first spoonful, the rage loosened its grip.
Not gone. Just gentled.
Food cannot solve every grief, but it can hold you while you survive it.
