Life is like a cake

A perfect cake. Fluffy and flavorful. Different ingredients. Combined, mixed, and baked just right. Each ingredient is crucial to the creation.  

Skip the sugar, and your cake tastes bitter. Skip the baking powder, and your cake falls flat. 

Some ingredients may not taste good on their own. But they are essential for the cake to rise. 

The same is true in life. 

Each situation in our life is needed for a complete experience. 

Some may not be pleasant. They may even be miserable. 

But they are essential for us to grow. 

Skipping less flavorful experiences will keep you from rising the same way skipping an ingredients leaves your cake flat. 

Life is like a cake. All ingredients are needed 

to rise just right.
