Recipe For Sanity<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This cookbook won\u2019t put up with none of your self-centered archaic antics.<\/p>\n
Its recipes have a zesty tang to remind you that nothing exists but here and now.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
After all, haven\u2019t you spent enough time doing what was expected?<\/p>\n
Why not add a spoonful of cayenne even though you don\u2019t like heat?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Life would be boring if it all worked out exactly as planned.<\/p>\n
Why not stand on the edge of a cliff and twirl as fast as you can, eyes closed.<\/p>\n
Then take a step forward.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Well \u2013 you\u2019re still here \u2013 so I guess it worked out.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Your reward is to be Michael Jordan about to shoot your biggest shot ever.<\/p>\n
Millions are watching. You are in the ocean with waves lapping at your knees.<\/p>\n
All you have to do is throw this big ol\u2019 basketball and hit the water that is all around you. Can\u2019t miss.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But what if a hurricane rages into your face just as you let go and blows that ball onto shore so you lose the game and dejectedly walk away amidst a medley of boos that drift into your marrow.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Can you realize that there are things bigger than you?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Can you accept that everything doesn\u2019t always work out the way you planned?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Well\u2026 if you can\u2026 then you are ready to bake this cake.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It will only taste right if it is infused with love.<\/p>\n
The kind of love not meant to make you feel good about yourself.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A love that is a form of art nonexistent until right now.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s right\u2026something new.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And you are not creating it.<\/p>\n
It is creating you.<\/p>\n
