See the Good!

I was walking the creatures earlier this evening through the wet grass, under the rain and between the buckeyes when I realized I DO NOT LIKE Wonder Bread.  Seriously,   what I associate  with  Wonder bread is a woman wearing a dress to the  mid calf, curls in her hair, pointy, high heels,  vacuum in one hand and an iron in the other, with a loaf of Wonder bread on the counter that is olive green and  gold curtains hanging in the background.   The  logo with the colored circles, red, blue and yellow.... just not for me.  I do not think I have ever bought a loaf, but probably have eaten a slice when I was younger.  I recall a friend telling me it tastes so good smooshed in a ball.  So I tried it with the whole, wheat, grain bread I had and it was like eating a non-deep fried doughnut, ewww!  If I were going to buy bread it might be Earth Grains, but I rarely buy bread and so with this  I was stumped as to why all the hoopla and association with the soft, delicious and nutritious Wonder  bread.

It is  like having a relationship with someone you know, and liking it ,then falling asleep and waking up  and looking at that person  to then see something different and yelp for help.    In the beginning there are so  many similarities and good qualities to notice that all else goes unnoticed.  AND then hello and good morning, the lights are on and wow are they bright, the things that we never liked are so huge and gigantic like the Loch Ness Monster.  I suppose the Wonder bread relationship lasted 24 hours and is now over.  Yesterday I noticed lots of amazing qualities and found gratitude and delight in the similarities and today found disgust in the fact that I related to something I don't even like, have in my home, nor would  probably ever purchase.  Just like me to find the good then bash it hard and then roll back around to notice what is great about the bread , bless it, adore it and  see why and how we are similar.  Rich, Wholesome and fortified with goodness- the same.... By the way- I had to check out the Wonder Bread website just because I was so curious.   And, I like it!!!!!   www.Wonderbread.com
