Life is TAREable

Life can get

Kinda heavy sometimes.

Past experience can

Weigh us down.

Maybe we can’t discern

All of the variables.

Many things are often

Out of our control.

When I am weighing

My vegetables on a scale,

I have to push the TARE button

And reset the scale to zero,

To account for the weight

Of the container holding them.

Maybe life could be

More like that.

Allowing ourselves a reset,

To account for our containers.

Setting us back to zero.

And ready to measure more precisely,

Exactly how heavy

This moment really is.

What do you think?

Is your life TARE-able?
