Re: RSVPs and the desi community
Someone earlier mentioned having to stand and eat. The last two lines of a poem I learnt in school came to mind
They also serve
Who (only) stand and wait.
I replaced wait with eat
The poet was John Milton - who became blind (googled to find this today). He States we all contribute our own way - even those who only stand and wait - or in this case stand and eat.
For some reason this line has stuck with me through the decades - though I have long since forgotten the rest.
