I notice in the Resurrection stories of the Gospels, Jesus seems to be eating or offering to eat with his disciples after he appears to them. Eating together is a way to get to know one another, and to actually forgive one another for bad behavior. Not eat and run, but eat and talk. So you might ask yourself how often do you sit down and eat with someone in a leisurely fashion, and talk? It can be a great way to work out differences or to make peace over some differences. I have seen where people are in a room full of others in some common “spiritual” effort, but afterwards, a few go out to eat or have coffee, and talk. The meeting after the meeting it is sometimes called. You can live alone, but it does not mean you have to be alone.
