The mix - What flavor do you bring?

I think it's kind of funny that a bowl of cereal inspired me to blog.  I will explain...

To me, nothing is more soothing, calming and cozy than a bowl of cereal before bed time.  So, as I enjoyed tonight's combination of flax seed multi grain cereal, fresh organic strawberries, seedless organic raisins and 2% organic milk - as I enjoyed every spoonful, I realized how much this delicious bowl of cereal relates to life.

The way I see it, what makes this bed time treat so delicious is not the milk, since I do not like drinking milk by itself...ew!  It's not the raisins - you would not catch me snacking on those, ever! It's not the cereal, nor the berries.  What makes it an experience for me is the combination of all those ingredients and flavors.

Makes me think how we as individuals have so much and are able to offer so much on our own, but how much even more we can actually accomplish, how much bigger impact we can make in our world when we come together.  My strength, your strength, my flavor, your flavor make an incredible combination and a greater opportunity to meet the needs in our world.

So, although we are strong and complete as individuals, together we are actually stronger.

I think that's pretty cool, don't you?
