Salt Connections

One of the messages from this weeks Parsha is to always keep salt on the table at mealtimes.
Tosfos Brochos 40 a explains that it serves as protection from the Satan.
What is the message ?
One explanation is that salt consists of two ingredients , each of which is poison by itself but they combine to form a positive , beneficial entity. We learn that we can do the same to interact & respond to & with others to serve Hashem.
Now may be a good time for a gem of Torah study.
