Sometimes it’s what we don’t say that means the most. Past hurts, pain, mistakes, failures, missed chances, and unforgiveness can be covered up with lots of fluffy frosting and fancy decoration however that sweetness only gives a brief ‘sugar high.’
We are like that birthday cake, celebrating our good times and our good feelings but hiding the real substance, the real ingredients underneath the colorful frosting and many lit candles as we make a wish for a better life as we blow them out, but we are left with the smoke as we fade into the darkness once again.
