Cooking pacifies my mind

Black glutinous rice dessert with sago and coconut cream(santan). Yup, it's what i cooked just now and it has cleared my mind off some dillemmas, or disturbances that have been plaguing my rational thinking for the past few days. Of course, when it comes to cooking, it's downright procedural at first, as you need to know the right proportion of ingredients beforehand, as well as the cooking procedures, within which instinctive adjustments have to be made to ensure it comes out adequately sweet, sour, spicy, salty, having the sufficient "level of fire" as for soups, so on and so forth. Also, you have to cater for the taste of the people you are cooking for if you are making your meals in your family, needs for elderly members of the family since they are mostly likely to believe in Chinese medical studies in refraining from a certain kind of food to avoid aggravating their illnesses and taking certain kind of food to enhance a certain body function or general well-being of a person. There'll be some members of the family who crave for exceptionally hot and spicy dishes that not any ordinary person can easily consume! Is there a term by the name of socio-culinarism?Perhaps so, since we have different kind of food represented by different races and nationalities. Well, I indeed start to like cooking but not to extent of making it a career. Why not, people ask. Oh well, there are things that would remain good to be a hobby as if you make a hobby into a career opportunity, you might end up disliking it eventually.
