Why is it that John’s  disciples fast.
And yours do not.
Shall the first be last.
What will be our lot.

Surely the bridegroom’s attendants would never think of fasting.
While the bridegroom is still with them.
Nothing is ever lasting.
But we will find eventually some comfort crumb.

I am watching Call The Midwife.
A simple tale of love despite poverty.
What’s important is not what you have but what you give in life.
And be imbued with simple sincerity.

The first may well end up last
And the last first.

…….

Should we be fasting
Perhaps it’s better giving
And also being

…….

See mark 2: 18-22
