Banquet
Seeds XI, 51
Seed: Banquet
Auntie Mame (Dennis) is one of my very favorite theologians. One of her best Mamisms is: “Life’s a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death.” We deny ourselves a place at the table.
Ernest Holmes, founder of Science of Mind, wrote, “We are fed from the table of the Universe, whose board is ever spread with blessedness and peace.”
Banquet actually comes from French roots which mean table. The table of the universe is. The issue isn’t that. It’s whether we’re showing up at the table. There’s always a place set for anyone who shows up.
What comprises a banquet for you? Free time? Lovely gifts? Singing songs? Dancing with abandon? Reading a book? A day at a spa? What qualifies as banquet to you?
Whatever that is, pull up a chair. We’ve been waiting for you. Now, dig in.
Be joy,
Susan Corso
