Eat the damn candy

Colour for days

We make countless decisions over the course of a given day, and if we dig deeper into the why of each one, we may realize they’re all connected by a single question:

What’s best for us?

And in the case of edible stuff like these colourful gummy candies, we might decide to stay away because they’re filled with empty calories and ingredients that may or may not have originated on Planet Earth.

It is, after all, eminently reasonable to try to lead a healthier lifestyle, and to avoid overdoing it on admittedly unhealthy foods.

But I draw lines between meals composed entirely of junk food and an occasional indulgence amid reasonably balanced diet and exercise.

Because life is short.

Because we all deserve an occasional moment of sweetness.

Or a simple smile.

So eat the damn candy.
