Ever since I started this new job I have been getting reaquainted with breakfast. Breakfast is a very important meal but having been a night person for the past year or so my body doesn't want food at 8 AM. It's like my stomach is saying, "What's the matter with you man? Its time for sleep not for food."
So rather then try to choke down something I just usually grab some fruit on my way out of the door and eat it on the way to work. I ran out of apples yesterday morning so I went to pick up some more on my way home. But before I could even look at the apples I saw those beautiful oranges...
I woke up late this morning, I freakin hate mornings man, grabbed and orange on the way out of the door. Now either I'm totally uncoordinated or it is damn difficult to walk and peel an orange at the same time.
"Should've stuck with the apples," I thought. Then I really got to thinking about it... Apples, though delicious, have succumbed to their fate. They have a super-thin, tasteless skin. Now oranges on the other hand, they got some fight. They sport a thick, bitter skin which requires a bit of digging before you can get to their deliciousness.
Am I an apple or an orange? Apples know their role and just go with the flow. Oranges have a strong will to survive and they make you earn their juicy rewards with effort. Truth is, I've been being a bit of an Apple in my life but here on this first blog of mine I vow to start being more like an Orange!
What about you?
