We all wish we're tough cookies. :) Rough exteriors with a bittersweet taste but we're all hard candies with a surprise center.
His momma said to him once "Life is a box of chocolates, you'll never know what you're gonna get."
I never saw that movie til I was in College. I really didn't understood what the fuss was about and why people liked it, then I did.
People experience all sorts of chocolate everyday.
Days like milk chocolate where everything seems so perfect. Nothing can go wrong.
Birds singing, flowers dancing and you, the happiest you.
Simple and classic.
Then there would be moments of candor.
Bright and ecstatic.
Just pure and innocent.
A space for peace, serenity and silence; a time for yourself.
A time for white chocolates.
Dubious scenes and mystery envelope your ray of sunshine because of deadlines,
falling from grace, love-hate relationships, apathy and confusion.
Like every dark chocolate, bitter at first but ends up sweet.
That is how we are. Living the life of candies in one big jar.
A variety of colors, different sizes and shapes, multiple textures and flavors.
Because after all, we are made unique, a cut apart the rest that distinguishes you from the other.
Today you might be a gummy bear. Fun and easy.
Tomorrow a jawbreaker, callous but luscious.
Somedays easy going, light and fluffy like cotton candy,
and test your patience with rolls of taffy.
Sweet dreams. Sweet tooth. Sweetheart.
That's how life is. sweet and sugary.
You would make it that way.
You can make it that way.
Chocolates. Taffy. Caramel. Marshmallows. Gummy Bears. Jelly Beans. Cotton Candy. Licorice Wands. Cakes. Truffles. Brownie. Cookie.
Which one are you?
Surprise me. Surprise yourself.
because life is sweet. :)
xoxo,
A.
