They Say Life Is Like a Box of Chocolates

They say life is like a box of chocolates , you will never know what you get . 
So they say " life is a surprise like that box of chocolates siting right in your lap as life comes in many shapes and flavors  . 
You may of ate them up already as chocolates taste way better then the life of surprise , or  you may of share them with a friend or someone you may love .   

What taste better ? 
Eating the box of chocolates on your own 
Sharing them with a friend or someone you love . 

Did you  get that surprise that you where looking for in life itself . 
It’s the small things in life that  makes you or I happy , that was the surprise . 

It could be that morning coffee you are sipping on in the morning sun and watching the world go by , 
Or that cup of tea you just drank while reading  this peace of art I just wrote . 
I just had a cup of tea and drank it while I'm putting this peace together , watching the wild life just at my door step " birds galore outside " . 

I may have had a **** night sleep , this has been going on for quiet sometime now since I have been in my new unit that I live in , me myself and I until life get sorted . 

Maybe one day life will surprise me like a box of chocolates  , and when I get to that point in life that I have seek there is no letting go . 

But for now I got to be happy for the small things that I have In my life now , 
The roof over my head 
The wild life at my door step 
That cup of tea I just had and drank 
This peace of work I just wrote 
The garden outside my door 
And the little man moving around in my belly each day .
