You wouldn’t think that prolific thoughts would flood your mind while making cookies, but that is what happened to me today. Little Magoo decided he wanted to make cookies, so this afternoon we did just that. My grandmother was known in the family for her chocolate chip Toll House cookies. Everyone loved them and no one could ever quite match her recipe.
I decided to try a different recipe today than I had tried the last time I made cookies. Sure enough I ran out of one ingredient and had to substitute with a now secret ingredient and tweaked things a bit.
Why a secret ingredient? Because let me tell you – these cookies were out of this world. That is when it really hit me how much we need to make our own marks in this world. The recipes we give to our children and grandchildren will never be the same…but it is up to them to tweak things and build on what we have given them…to make their own marks on the world…to make the world a sweeter place in their own way, because we all have something special to give. It is just all about finding that perfect recipe to make it shine in our own way.
When we find that special spot, the world seems more at peace.
Doors open, that we never knew existed.
All because of what we individually bring to the table.
It is about trusting in yourself.
Trusting your capabilities.
And remembering….
Anything is possible.
Thumbs up to this post. Love it.
