Egg, Coffee, or Carrot? Which will you be?

The Egg, Carrot, and Coffee Beans

Situations in life can make you feel out of place and not know what to do. When life heats up, it can make life seem uneasy and you may not know what to do? I once herd this story and it relates to life, what will you be? The egg? The Carrot? Or the Coffee Bean?

The Carrot: The carrot lives his life the way he or she wants. Throughout its entire life, the tribulations it has faced made it extremely hard to the core. Since it is very hard, it does not waste time on the soft things in life, such as love, peace and happiness. The carrot has learned that in the in, you will end up hurt, thus the reason it has grown to be extremely hard. However, it has been able to make it, and sustain itself, living a seemingly happy and productive life.

The Egg: The Eggs is someway the same way. It wants to achieve great things and have all of the pleasures that come with life. The egg wants to be happy, at peace and in love. It has been deprived of all of these things and desperately wants to find these things. Because of this, it has developed a hard exterior, but can easily be broken, leading to all of its emotions being poured out. Because it is very soft and fragile at heart, the egg can easily be broken.

The Coffee Bean: The coffee bean has a different life story. It was raised around many people of its kind. Yes its worth has been stolen for the good of others. The coffee beans for many years have been exploited, being sold around the world because people loved the dark rich taste of coffee. Some even said coffee beans have natural high, a rush of energy they give to people who consume them. The coffee bean for many years has faced turmoil but has never let it change them.

Then one day, the egg, carrot, and coffee bean find themselves

in a heated situation. They must pull together in order to survive but

their difference of opinions makes it difficult for them to effectively find

common ground suitable to all. They are now in a pot of boiling water, 

frantic, not knowing what to do. They could all loose their

lives if they do not think fast....

Instead of working together, the do what they know to do best: 

survive on their own....

The Carrot: With its many years of being hard as a rock, never allowing its emotions to show, always having the answers, breaks down. It cannot handle the heat, and being alone. It become so frustrated, and with the intense heat of the boiling water, it become soft and beings to break down. It begins to scream and cry to the sky, "take me away, get me out of here!" The carrot does not believe it will survive the intense heat. It screams, cries and bangs the walls of the pot, wanting out. It cannot handle the intense heat of the boiling water. All of the years of living life hard to the core, have finally caught up with the carrot. It continues to cry to the sky, for something, someone to rescue it. The carrot is not breaking down, it does not believe it will survive and begins breaking down. It become so soft that it is eventually rescued by silver forks from the sky.

The Egg: Because the egg has always been a softy at heart, the heat of the boiling water is desensitizing it, and since it feel so alone, it does what it does best, live live for itself. Seeing the emotional break down of the hard carrot, and knowing what may happen, it quickly hardens. It cries to the sky, but does not see r get an answer. It panics, frantically trying to find something to reduce the heat. It no longer can take the intense heat and It creates a thinker inner core, and maintaining the hard outsides. Making it even harder than before. Yet still feeling the heat, it cries to the sky, wanting to be rescued. Still hearing no answer, it become harder and harder, resistant to anything thing. It becomes so hard, silver spoons swoop down from the sky to save the hardening egg.

The Coffee Bean: The coffee bean is now alone in the pot. Seeing the emotional turmoil the egg and carrot went through, led the coffee bean to think fast. It began to bleed, bleed and blend to its surroundings. Yet the intense heat did not seize. It began to cry to the sky's for mercy, and it let the intense heat of life go away. The coffee bean had changed the boiling water to coffee, yet it was still extremely how. Fearing it had made a mistake, the coffee bean tried to undo what it had done. But it was too late. Fearing the worse, it cried again... no answer.. no silver spoon or fork to come and rescue the coffee bean which was not a boiling pot of hot water.... Yet the boiling bubbles began to rise slower, and the ground became easier to stand on. The heat began to seize and the coffee began to feel calm. Then its world was turned upside down, only to be met by sweet crystals and smooth cream. The coffee bean did not get rescued, but it survived the boiling water.

What will you be?
