Thinking about what makes things special…

I dunno, I’m sitting here this morning typing up some meeting minutes, eating a bowl of oatmeal and a thought I had, “What makes things special if everything has to be special?”.

This is coming from the fact that today, I decided to not add butter and sugar to my oatmeal and cream and sugar to my coffee.  I wanted to take some time today to find out what it is about the products I consume that makes them enjoyable… Is it the sugar in them that makes me crave them?  Is there something good about oatmeal, real oatmeal, not the instant packs with apples and cinnamon?  It doesn’t mean a whole lot I guess but it’s just one of those things that I think about sometimes.

If we don’t know about the mundane, how can we truely enjoy the special?

That's why I like a can of mixed nuts. It takes some peanuts to make us appreciate the cashews. I bought a whole bag of cashews once, but I got tired of them after a few handfulls. They weren't all that special when that's all there was.
