cook vs eat

i want to learn to cook many things. but i think, his eagerness to eat what i cook motivates me more.  

Like, i don't see the joy of eating myself. I'd cook if somebody is really look into it. I don't cook well, but i'm willing to learn. But, if I sense lack of eagerness, which means those cooked food left untouched or too many leftovers, then it releases me from guilty feeling from the thought that i don't see any necessary to cook.

But, i wish i can be a good cook for my children though.... I always dream of children who always brag that their mom's dishes are fantastic.
