Tai uses an analogy that really talks to me. He says that we need to be like a soup, our knowledge, our lives.
You can"t make a good soup with just a few ingredients. You need a lot of ingredients to make a soup that you don"t have to make edible by crumbling crackers into it, or bread. ((Some poor man"s soups, onion soup, garlic soup, "rue" soup in Hungary, are so uninteresting that you can"t eat it without putting bread in them. The versions with poached egg, cheese melted on top, etc. are the restaurant versions of the same soups... but the soup itself is a poor man"s soup. Poor as in not having much to give.
Not surprisingly, one of my all time favorite fairy tales is the Stone Soup, in which the man gets the ingredients needed for a good soup from the good people of the village... I don"t care where you get the ingredients... just get them! lol))
A good soup is a symphony of tastes, smells, and every new piece you find in your spoon is a new delight and a surprise. A great analogy for life. NOT your life right now, but for a LIFE WORTH LIVING.
Now, what does this mean to you?
