This has caused me to recall the post;

Forged in Fire, Paid in Steem

Without heat,no raw food would ever become what we now eat to nourish the body and also helping the body to keep living. All thanks to heat(fire) to now make the raw food to look more appealing to the eyes, if not the heat.... what else?

Living through critical time hard to deal with(has raw food passing through heat to become consumable), should be viewed as training ground, that at the end we are blessed with comfort, only if we carefully stay through in endurance and hard work.
