Simplifying Life

back to the basics now
when it is hard soften it
when is dry
wet it
when it is too hot
wait

when it is bland
put a little salt

or a pinch of sugar
if you want it a little bit sweet

or sour
then use a little vinegar
or
add some drops of lemon

a cube of seasoning
or to appease the tongue

put the black pepper
or the chili sauce

when things are frozen
thaw it

it is just like life
when things get rough
my dear
be tough
