Kitchen Fellowship: Blessed Souls

A Kitchen Blessing

"We always end up in the kitchen" -
It's a thing you hear everyone say.
No matter what time or occasion,
So often it happens that way.

The kitchen's heart of the household;
It's the place where we gather to share
A home-cooked meal or some cookies,
The housework, our thoughts, or a prayer.

A kitchen deserves its own blessing -
A simple but sincere one will do:
Bless the food, the room, and the people;
Bless the cook and the cook's helper, too.

Half-Hearted Creatures

We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered to us, like an ignortant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at sea. We are far too easily pleased.
