I really enjoy a box of chocolates; white, dark or milk chocolate, it doesn’t matter. However, I only like chocolate covered nuts, caramel, and or coconut but I don’t want any candy with gooey centers.
Sometimes, I compare life to a box of mixed chocolates minus the inner menu card, cuz you never know what you’re getting till you take a bite. With a box of chocolates, you can choose which piece you desire but in life, we don't always get to do what we want to do nor do we get to choose what happens to us.
Some of our days are good and some not so good.
Some days proceed as we have planned and others are completely turned upside down.
Some days we sail through calmly on smooth waters and other days we are caught in hurricaine winds and waves.
Our life can change in an instant without warning and several people I know are experiencing some major life tragedies that they never expected. They would never have chosen the path that they are on right now, and yet here they are. They are coping with what has happened to the best of their abilities and still managing to hold on to their faith and have hope. They realize that they are not alone and that there are people who love and care for them. They also know that God is with them and He will never leave or forsake them. He will carry them through the difficult times and walk with them till they see the light at the end of the tunnel, and beyond.
Life is more complicated than a box of chocolates, as we all know but whatever comes your way take a bite out of it and enjoy the sweet days you have and make the most out of the ones that are gooey are not your favorites.
