Am I eating Only Octopus?

From the responses I am getting to my Redeemed Eccentric Blog, I realize that some of my poor well-wishers are imagining that I am only eating octopus in various Vietnamese Sauces. Not at all!  What I am being served by the dear Vietnamese Sisters would cost me $100 a day it I went to restaurants, with great variety of chicken, pork, beef; all kinds of sauces, and amazing coconut desserts!  Since the kitchen is closed in the summer when the seminarians are off on internships, Vietnamese families in Connecticut bring all kinds of food to the 25 or so Sisters here still in the summer.  This is quite luxurious for some who tell me that in now totally Communist Vietnam in some villages there is no rice or meat; only sweet potatoes.

These ladies make the different dishes for eating the food and all the food items are so delicious. Poor people are eating the octopus food because they have not money for food.

I don't see a big issue why people would laugh on you when they knew you were eating octopus dishes only and has been living a quite challenging life. First and foremost, octopus dishes are delicious, no one should ever look down at these dishes. On the other hand, I believe you should start caring less to what other people have to say. They are just there to distract you so you will not achieve your goal. Do not let them steal your shine!
