As an example. I LOVE MoJo's analogies, much like I anticipate the showing of a new author. That doesn't mean that **I** get her, but I do so love to read her. I know the brain-power and massive intellect behind it, after all. Me not getting it is not the fault of her.... she runs, often, far above me. And I think it is awesome. That does NOT downplay my own intellect or emotional IQ. It means... we get to Rome by different roads. Thank God. I SO want to hear of her different journey. And she spills.
She also puts me in my place, and has, on several occasions. And once she warmed to her work... she nails me pretty consistently. Not out of ego need... just out of observation.
Familiarity breeds contempt, after all (Mojo, I'm kidding)
So. If you can stand it, pull up a place of humility at the setting of our table. I'm not going to apologize for the host of characters you will find at this table.
For after all, all are welcome who can stomach the sitting.
