"think of this: which am i?

am i the carrot that seems strong, but with pain and adversity, do i wilt and become soft and lose my strength?

am i the egg that starts with a malleable heart, but changes with the heat? did i have a fluid spirit, but after a death, a break-up, a financial hardship or some other trial, have i become hardened and stiff? does my shell look the same, but on the inside am i bitter and tough with a stiff spirit and a hardened heart?

or am i like the coffee bean? the bean actually changes the hot water, the very circumstance that brings the pain. when the water gets hot, it releases the fragrance and flavour. if you are like the bean, when things are at their worst, you get better and change the situation around you."

so, what are you according to the above? "when adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond? are you a carrot, an egg, or a coffee bean?"

I'm the one that makes you awake,
I'm the one who's real good on your break,
Grind me good I smell real fine,
In a big blue mug that say's "This coffee's mine",
My cup is dry so I'm gonna split the scene,
And you guessed it right I'M THE COFFEE BEAN!!!!

Maybe I should do something about my coffee addiction sometime...

I would love to say that I am the "coffee bean", however, I find that I am a lot more like the "carrot" then anything else. It is a good thing that there is always room for self improvement. I am only 20. Some day I know i will be able to react like the "coffee bean", I just need to work at it, and for it.

-+- Carrot
-+- and
-+- Coffee Bean

---->Carrot<----I look strong on the outside but when others seem to do a lot of hurtful or "different" things i can't do, I turn light and lose all my strength and forgive them. I want to fight back for myself and win my respect but... I can't, it's only the hard shell. Not my heart.

--->Coffee Bean<---I love changing the minds of others like the Coffee Bean. But when some stubborn people comes in hand, i feel the most pain. When Others are in bad shape, I feel bright though... I feel like a star, being the best.

Wow. That's inspiring. I'd like to think that I was always the coffee bean, colorful and flavorful and full of life. unfortunately, I think that, like everyone, I have my egg and carrot moments. I think that if everyone strives to always be the coffee bean, this world would be a whole lot nicer place to live in.

Carrot

Coffee makes the water bitter around it. You have to add milk or sugar. Chocolate and Carob make it nutty and even sweet. How about Peppermint? That's me, peppermint! I make a nice odor, and taste good with or without sugar in the water. I revitalize and restore breath to those whose breath is flagging from the weariness of the world and the polluted air around them. I am Peppermint.

I am a coffee bean for my family and a couple close friends, and an egg to everyone else.
