Recipe For Sanity

 

This cookbook won’t put up with none of your self-centered archaic antics.

It’s recipes have such a tang, that you will know nothing exists but here and now.

 

After all, haven’t you spent enough time doing what was expected?

Why not add a spoonful of cayenne even though you don’t like heat.

 

Everything would be boring if it all worked out exactly as planned.

So why not stand on the edge of a cliff and twirl as fast as you can – eyes closed – and then take a step forward.

 

Well – you’re still here – so I guess it worked out.

 

Your reward is to be Michael Jordan about to shoot the biggest shot of your career.

Millions are watching. You are in the ocean. Waves lapping at your knees. All you have to do is throw this big ol’ basketball and hit the water that is all around you. Can’t miss.

 

But what if a hurricane blows into your face just as you let go and blows that ball onto the shore so you lose the game. Dejectedly walk away amidst a medley of boos that drift into the marrow of your being.

 

Can you realize that there are things bigger than you?

 

Can you accept that everything doesn’t work out the way you planned?

 

Well… if you can then you are ready to bake this cake.

 

It will only taste right if it is infused with love.

This love is not meant to make you feel good about yourself.

 

This love is a form of art nonexistent until right now.

That’s right…something new.

 

And you are not creating it.

It created you.
