Looking at a a Bowl of Jelly Beans (and picking out the good ones)


I've decided that that people are like jelly beans. They're similarly shaped  and they may look the same on the outside but when you pick out a yellow one because you think it's lemon it could easily turn out to be popcorn. So like people, we could all look pretty similar from the outside, but it's the inside that counts. And I know it's an incredibly hackneyed phrase but it's an important one in life to always be reminded of. Lemon tastes a lot different than popcorn and while some people may be into popcorn, some aren't. It's easy to think you are picking the right shade of green from the outside, but if you don't break it open and get a little taste of it, you could be saving a booger for last all the while you think it's green apple and miss out on appreciating other flavors like cinnamon, or fruit punch.
