leave a tip
Considering, but not knowing what may come after this life, I find it vainly and vapidly fruitless to hunger for perfect pie in the sky and oddly calming to think of pushing back from the table when my life's holy purpose is sanely and sapidly consumed. There is peace in believing: life is the bountiful feast and death, just a gratuity.
