People Are Like Bacon

10/9/2013

A few weeks ago I was making breakfast for my daughter in the morning before bringing her to school. It was her first week of kindergarten so I wanted to make sure that she was “powered up” with a good breakfast. I whipped up some scrambled eggs, fruit and a couple of slices of turkey bacon. 

My five year old looks at her plate, looks at me, and then says ...

“Dad, can I have REAL bacon, please?”

I had to laugh! Even a five year old girl-who knows nothing about the reasons why we eat mainly turkey bacon in our home, instead of “real bacon”, knows that there is a difference in taste, smell and overall experience between the two bacons. (Although I will say that Trader Joe’s turkey bacon is pretty good, considering.) 

My daughter doesn’t have any of the guilt or worry associated with eating pork bacon, because she doesn’t know about any of the negatives associated with it. All she knows and focuses on is how great sizzling, crispy bacon tastes.

A modified version of this blog post was originally published for a marriage ministry blog in 2008. 
I was driving my car over the weekend and my eyes glanced up at the oil change reminder sticker. I realized that it's been more than six months since I last changed my oil and I know that if I want to keep my car running for a long time, I should probably do that soon.

Preventive maintenance is critical to the overall health of our cars, isn't it? Unfortunately we often tend to remember this when we need it the most-when the tire is flat, or when the windshield wiper fluid tank is empty, when the brakes start to squeak, or when the transmission sounds like a can being dragged behind a bike. 

Cars are not the only things that need preventative maintenance and tune ups...so do relationships!
