Realiti questions

Do you question reality?
 I do sometimes; 

Today I found myself on the second floor 
Of a fast food building; 
Sitting nearby the window
 In some bench-like chair; 

There were three of us; 
One in the corner;
 One in the middle of the small room; 
And I nearby the window; 

For a while I appreciated the fact that we,
 As species, 
For a while, 
Were able to eat each its respective food, 
Without gnarling and snarling at each other;

An interesting share, Kamela. How one eats is very indicative of how one IS. When I attended meditation retreats, we were required to eat alone, separately, in silence too. To be honest, the food tasted so much the better & the gratitude for food soared. Personally I think to sometimes eat alone is a good thing. We can savour the food without needless chatter. Sending blessings.
