Saltiness is being yourself. You cannot satisfy everyone.

 

Morning: Psalm 78:1-39; Isaiah 59:1-15a; 2 Timothy 1:1-14

Evening: Psalm 78:40-72; Mark 9:42-50

Salt enhances flavour. A flavourless life is bland. Bland (If that is your name, you must live it down, or up, believe me!) ... Bland is lacking one’s own unique character. Bland is a divided self: Your left leg takes you here, your right takes you there. You do not know where you are going. One hand wants this, the other that. You do not know your own mind. One eye sees one perspective, the other’s view is different. You cannot see clearly. You are indistinct, insipid, not really yourself. Saltiness is being yourself. You cannot satisfy everyone.
