Empty Plate?

Our lives are like empty plates we wait for others to fill for us.
Perhaps THIS person will give us what we need to fill our plates, or the empty space in our souls. We want so much, we ask for it and then we turn away as it is presented.....maybe it's not cooked to our liking, or it has too many calories, or the crust is still on it! OMG, how could they leave the crust on?? I am NOT going to eat that, it shall be returned to the kitchen......"FIX THIS" we cry out.

Perhaps the Universe fills the "plates of our lives" with unexpected nourishment because we really need to eat that which is presented on the plate. Perhaps we are being asked to reach past our comfort zone and try the icky looking highly nutritious "entree" before we disregard it with a single fearful "I don't like that".

Is not an empty plate ready to be filled?
Could an empty plate be a receptacle for NEWNESS and OPPORTUNITY?
Take a moment and stare into the empty plate. As you see your own reflection staring back at you from the mirror of possibilities......
ask yourself; truthfully ask yourself.... "what the hell am I so AFRAID of"?
