Fast Food

 The Eucharist for Catholics, is not fast food.  A meeting for addicts in recovery is not just the hour.  Eucharist and Recovery need to be savored.  That is where watching on zoom does not cut it.  Maybe it is all you can do at times, but it is not as fulfilling as lingering with Receiving Eucharist or attending in person meetings.  In a meeting come early and stay after to linger and talk to others.  In Eucharist, don’t receive and then rush out to the next thing, obligation met.  There needs to be time to savor what you have received.  It is a precious gift, as is sobriety.  Lingering will make you a better person and will be helpful to others because of this.  Having to rush off is more about fear or ego.  The world cannot live without me, or it better not.
