Of Surplus

Abstract

In any occasion the host cannot estimate the probable consumption of food by the guests correctly. Also, it is difficult to calculate the intake of the normal guests even. It depends on the condition of health and stomach as well. Again, some guests are health conscious. The gradation of guests and their choice food are very uncertain. No statistician can speculate it correctly. The estimate becomes impossible for the guests who celebrate the get together with wine. They break all barriers and cross all boundaries with their uncontrollable emotion. Sometimes the drunkards take less. Sometimes they take more. Sometimes they take most under alcoholic competition. Their emotions are whisked away. Thus, the mood and motif of the so-called VIP guests are gloriously so uncertain. In such a social gathering surplus is the only avenue to save the status and prestige of the host. Here shortage of food will have very bad social impact. In such a case surplus thereby, wastage has to be accepted to avoid social complicacy. Here emotion has no place except surplus. Here surplus is the only rescuer. Here surplus has no substitute, rather surplus itself is its substitute.
