Flavors

Comments

Life is boring with­out flavor, Baskin Robins offers 31 dif­fer­ent fla­vors. Yet, I only need one.

It must be sweet, but it also has to have a bite. It must be cool to the touch, yet it must be warm like hot choco­late.

To find a flavor you like, to pick one from the crowd, seems near impos­si­ble. How could one pick one from the masses? There are so many, and some taste incred­i­bly bitter. Others are far too common.

We all hope to be so lucky, to find the one we want. Maybe some­day, we could all find our fla­vors. The flavor that makes you smile no matter what kind of day you are having. The one that makes you tingle inside.

More likely though, is that the flavor will find you. It will some­how come to you, jump out at you, or ask you to try it. And when that time comes, don’t be afraid to take the risk. In the end it is all worth it.

So here is my tip: Never settle with vanilla or choco­late, when there are much more inter­est­ing fla­vors out there.

This is my random attempt at some form of prose. It started out as a poem, but I decided to try some­thing dif­fer­ent. Let me know what you think.
