Hello Temple! My name is Brandon and I will be hosting this week’s cantina chat. The chat will take place on Sunday February 4th, 2018 at its usual time 6:00 p.m. est. The topic for discussion is: How can we as Jedi/a congregation use our inborn talents to serve the will of the Force and better our world. To kick off our discussion I will reference John Milton’s poem “When I consider how my light is spent” seen below. I look forward to chatting with you all!

As per TotJO protocol everyone interested needs to PM me your discord username and age. As per the new policy all those interested in taking part in the chat must have been granted official membership to the Temple. I will be making the attendance list available about twelve hours before the discussion is to begin.
John Milton [1608-1674]
When I Consider How My Light is Spent
When I consider how my light is spent
Ere half my days, in this dark world and wide
And that one talent is death to hide
Lodged me with useless, though my soul more bent
To serve therewith my Maker and present
My true account, lest he returning chide.
“Doth God exact day-labor, light denied?”
I fondly ask; but patience to prevent
That murmur, soon replies, “God doth not need
Either man’s work or his own gifts; who best
Bear his mild yolk, they serve him best. His state
Is Kingly. Thousands at his bidding speed
And post o’er land and ocean without rest:
They also serve who only stand and wait.

Milton, John. “When I consider how my light is spent.” 250 poems: A Portable
Anthology. 3rd ed. Shackle and Ridl. Bendford. 2014. New York.

Edited to add: and realizing I was probably way too late in sending that PM.
