  1. Feeding God’s Creatures By Benedict T. Palen, Jr. I do volunteer work at a food bank, and there is always a large quantity of pastries and other “sweets” that are turned into compost because the policy of this particular food bank is to encourage its clients not to have diets with high sugar content foods.

Palen, Jr. In a world where humans have such trouble getting along with others with “look different” than them, I find it interesting that these creatures of all shapes, sizes, and colors, eat right alongside each other in the box, and near it, with rarely any conflicts. How is it that these creatures have figured out how to get along, when we humans cannot seem to do so? Alas, that is a topic for a long conversation. Suffice to say that our back patio is the gathering place every day, twice a day, for these creatures. It is a source of much amusement to watch the massive nibbling that takes place in “the box.” We are keeping them fed, although we sometimes wonder if they get too much sugar…..
