Life as it Relates to a Margarita

I've been trying to think of an analogy for a margarita lately...Mainly because I love them. The weather is warming up and it is making them my favorite drink right now - aside from water that is:). In everything there must be balance *grin*.

Any way, the way I see it, a Margarita can relate to life in general. Nowadays there are many different flavors and varieties of Marg. You have your strawberry, mango, recently I discovered blackberry, etc. They can be frozen and blended or on the rocks with salt rims. It seems most restaurants have their own spin on Marg too. You don't have to look to far to find Marg in an original variety:)!

The quality and taste of Marg is largely determined by the quality of tequila that is used. Trust me, a connoisseur of sorts, there is a difference:). If you use a low end tequila you better have a good mix of Marg's juices and flavors. If you have a high end tequila the mix doesn't matter as much because you definitely don't want to mask the flavor of the tequila:)...

So how did I make this all relate to life? Quite simply really:). We all get to choose what flavor our life is by our attitudes. Sometimes it can be more sour than sweet, sometimes it can be more red than green:). Our attitude is like the Margarita mix. It will mix with whatever tequila you have on hand. Sometimes you need more attitude adjustment to compensate accordingly.

The tequila,in my analogy,is comparative to our current situation in life. We can have poor circumstances or we can be GREAT. Even if our life circumstances are prosperous and amazing we still have to choose our mix (attitude) carefully.

Wherever it is that you find yourself in life right now - just remember that you can control the flavor of it! I think I feel like I'm a strawberry margarita today - on the rocks with a salt rim:)... I'll let you figure out what mood that puts me in:)!

Thanks for checking in:).

XO
