Life Lessons

You always learn things in life and one thing that i will remember is that when I was about 4 years old I hated, absolutely hated tomatoes. My mom always tried to make me eat them but i refused. If I smelt them I would pull a weird face because i thought they look and tasted really bad, the thing is that I had never tasted one in my life before. The one thing that nobody understood is that I was a (I still am) a ketchup lover. Ketchup is made out of tomatoes so this did not make any sense. My parents did everything they could to let me try a tomato. They always told me that it tasted sweet a bit like candy; but I still refused to even get my mouth close to it.

My mom made salad one night and she put baby tomatoes in the salad and even chopped them in half, she wanted to see if I would maybe get one in my salad and not see it but eat it. I know what your thinking right now 'her plan worked', okay it did work. When I ate the tomato (with out noticing) I said "WOW mom did you put something in the salad that is new because there is this thing and i don't know what it is but it tastes really good??" my Moms plan had worked. "Well it isåålike'. this doen't aply to just 'food' but it aplys to your every day life. Don't just sit there and say No i am not going to do that , try it and have fun dong it. Now i love finding out new things and trying to do different things in life.
