Lemon Drop

Have we dropped the sweetness of life?

I was quickly running to the store to meet my wife at lunch hour to look at sofas when I noticed this candy sitting on the ground. I stopped and wondered if it had fallen out of a child’s pocket as his mother dragged him to the store.

What sweetness have we dropped as get dragged along in the race of life? Do you stop to notice?

By the way, I had the day wrong and was supposed to meet my wife on Friday not Wednesday. Oh well, I had a pleasant 30 minute wait in vain on a variety of leather sofas as I contemplated the lemon drop.
