Better a Dry Morsel with Quiet
Better a dry morsel with quiet than a house full of feasting with strife.
Am I so busy setting a lavish table that I lose the peace of the hearts seated at it?
📝Reflection
Sometimes I miss a quiet table more than a lavish one. However well the food is laid out, if sharp words cross over it, nothing goes down. Harmony is set not by the number of dishes but by the temperature of the hearts. One humble but peaceful meal keeps a person alive better than a splendid but uneasy feast.

For just one meal today, turn the conversation from conflict to gratitude. The same food will taste different.
This verse is read as universal humanistic wisdom, not religion — no faith is promoted, and the reflection is 100% original ONGO content.
