cakes

Have you ever watched Ace of Cakes? They are the most amazing group of young adults who work together to make incredible cake.  I am always amazed that they can create such art and then let people eat it! i guess it is like the mandalas that the Buddhist Monks create.... They make these beautiful art pieces out of sand then when they complete the mandala they brush it away.  It is a lesson in impermanence (something that is not permanent).  It is a reflection on the way life is...nothing is forever we can never tell when something - someone -will be gone.  So I like Ace of Cakes because it reminds me that i need to live my life fully, make beautiful things and have my cake and eat it to! What have you done today to live your life to the fullest?
