Baking
Baking
is a lot like
Life.
You do everything,
exactly as the recipe says,
but still, somehow you
mess it up.
Even though,
when you taste your creation
You can’t even tell.
It may have not turned out the way you
wanted it to,
But it’s still good, and maybe;
Just maybe
It’s even better than what
it was originally supposed to be.
Sometimes you have a recipe in mind,
But life comes along,
and you’ll come to find;
Sometimes, it takes you down
A different path than you expected.
so don’t frown,
It doesn’t mean it’s wrong,
but rather,
That it’s a new adventure
waiting just for you!
You still get to where your going,
You’re just taking a new route
that you didn’t even know existed.
You can do anything you set your mind to,
from baking cookies
to living life to the fullest.
Believe in yourself, you got this!
No matter what path you’re on,
You’ll get to where you’re going.
