life itself is a bagel : you can never get the shape to be a perfect circle, if it is it must be plastic.. you can never cut a straight line and chunks escape. there are always going to be imperfections but you have to realize that you will still enjoy that bagel.. why? because, no matter what shape or color, no matter what toppings whether its cream cheese or jelly or butter or peanut butter, it will all still be enjoyable.. the imperfections are life's challenges, the topping are how you overcome them or learn to live with them and be balanced. if you don't let it be imperfect, if you don't learn to balance you could crumble and more. so just enjoy while it lasts, be okay with it, be in the middle, be just "fine" with things you cant control.
