Yesterday I was making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch and I got to thinking about life. 
You see, I like to spread the jelly and peanut butter evenly over the bread. I think it creates a perfect sandwich that is moist. If I only spread the peanut butter or jelly over certain parts of the bread, the sandwich would have an inconsistent taste and it would be dry in certain spots. No one likes a dry pb&j!
How in the world did I relate this to life?
Well, I was thinking that in life, if we spread ourselves unevenly between productive activities and personal time, our lives become inconsistent and dry. Also, if we spread too much onto our sandwich (life), it runs down our hands and chin. It can get messy.
I want my life to be like what I consider to be a good pb&j, spread evenly.
Living My Full Life 
Nicely put. I love little epiphanies like this! 🙂
Haha I love your analogy :). You are so right too, if you are too productive and don’t take time for yourself, you burn out really, really, quickly.
Word. Especially true for us introverts.
This is so true and you definitely have the right idea with this one.
Such a cool thought about it though. 🙂
Ahhhh this is why I love you and your blogs. You make me so happy. This is an awesome analogy 🙂 Who doesn’t love a good pb&j?!
Truth. You can’t have too much work or too much play. You can’t appreciate either one if you don’t balance it out with the other.
Very very true my friend. Couldnt agree more.
Thank you for the comment! I have been meaning to tell you, I have been trying and trying to comment on your posts and I don’t think my comments are going through. I’m not sure if it is a glitch with blogger or anything. Just thought I’d let you know! ❤
I agree with both statements. A good pb&j and a good life needs to be spread just right!
Loving this PB&J perspective 🙂
I’m impressed with your deep thoughts while eating my favorite sandwich! How about if you use crunchy PB? Bumps in the road? 🙂
I want to be like a good PB sandwich too: A sticky mess and full of bananas. Oh, wait…
Hehe…love it! 😀
very nicely put! it is so hard to spread evenly. i kinda suck at it still sometimes.
So true!
Awesome awesome analogy…
and BEAUTIFUL spreadage on that PBJ.
