Ring of Fire

Today’s Daily Prompt:

Do you love hot and spicy foods or do you avoid them for fear of what tomorrow might bring?

I do not love hot and spicy foods. Mild spice – fine…yummy even. I am not a fan of burning lips and teary eyes, and my spice tolerance is that of a typical born-and-raised Midwestern girl.

But, I do not avoid spicy foods for fear of what tomorrow might bring. I try not to avoid anything for fear of what tomorrow might bring.

My mind has spent years in tomorrow. I now encourage that sweet mind to put down the stories, and instead know that we are strong enough to be awake and open to every tomorrow. Spicy or not.
