A Box Of Chocolates

I may not have all of the answers, or even a blog entry for the day, but I do have a new take on an old favorite, take it however you will.

"Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap,
thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever
asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back
is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with
this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you
mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else
left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a
peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But
they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So
you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled
with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and
if you're desperate enough to eat those, all
you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled
with useless, brown paper wrappers.
