So, the other night my mom asked me if i wanted to go get pie with her. I was tired and not in the best mood, but being the huge cow that I am, it was an offer I couldn’t refuse. I could almost hear Marie Antionette saying, “Let them eat cake!” <Insert pie there. As I was sitting there in the cold cafe, about to “dig in” if you will, I was expecting that my chocolate cream pie was just pie crust and melted chocolate. You could imagine how bitter I got when I relaized the “melted chocolate” was bitter itself. So I sulked and somewhat ate it while my mom talked about god-knows-what. She asked if I was all done, and I said yes I was and it was NOT very good and that it wasn’t good melted chocolate. Then, completely out of left field she informed me that it was chocolate PUDDING. Imagine that, pudding. Suddenly I didn’t think the pie was so horrible after all. It completely made sense to me. I was expecting something, so when I got something else I was not happy with it. But now that I knew I was wrong, I was completely content.

*(And no this blog isn’t only about my pie fairy tale….that much)

Sometimes life is like my pie dillema. You are expecting a perfect melted chocolate, and instead you get pudding. While it may not be your ideal situation, you can work with it. And when you look at things from a different light, and see things as they REALLY are, you can deal with your situations maturely. I think God speaks to people through different things, me food apparently. The day before this great pie epiphany, I was royally pissed at a certain someone for not reacting to a sitation the way I felt was appropriate. I solemnly swore to never speak to this person again—in my head that is. It’s too big of a commitment to verbalize—because of how wrong they were. But I realized that to them, they handled it just the way they saw fit. That’s the thing, people are different, and they have different emotions, which gives them different reactions. This is both a bad and beautiful thing, it calls for a diverse society and hurt feelings. So next time life doesn’t go your way, change the way you’re looking at it, it helps.

Now…”LET THEM EAT CAKE”
