Full or Empty?

What do you do when you think you can not take any more?


But out there somewhere, someone hears you.  And they say to themselves,"Lets give that person a few more things in life to think about".  There it is, in a instant, more on my plate than I know what to do with.  


I like to eat.  I like a full plate.  I like to see things as a challenge, a opportunity to make something positive.  I know this takes a lot of energy but imagine how much energy it will take if you approach your overflowing plate in a negative way.  


Let's say instead of handling one bite at a time you decide to throw some of your food on the floor or at your friend.  How about this, you ad some spice and seasoning thinking it will taste better or look better and you discover the it doesn't taste good at at ll.


Point being, it takes a lot less energy to handle the overflowing plate one bite at a time than it does to have to clean up a big mess from throwing your food around as a result of frustration and anger.


Be happy with your overflowing plate, there are some that do not have anything on theirs.
